CURRENT MISSION

To see the world through the eyes of other people

ABOUT ME

Jewish kid from the world's biggest little city, Omaha, Nebraska (as opposed to Reno, Nevada, the world's littlest big city). I watch movies, talk, study, talk, sleep, talk, eat, talk, and make friends. And talk.

PHILOSOPHY

Never say anything unless it is at least two of these three things:
Necessary - (as in it is vital; people could die if this information was not shared)
True - (as objectively as possible; gossip is hurtful)
Kind - (pretty basic, don't be a dick unless you have to)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm leaving for Israel on August 2nd, and my living situation leading up to that point has recently fallen apart. Since the departure date is so close, and since my job involves a lot of traveling, I don't much see the point in paying monthly rent. I'm totally down to pay by the night if that's something you feel you deserve!

Interests

Movies (but specifically noir films), Directing Films, Critiquing Films, etc.

• movies
• traveling

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything by Stanley Kubrick, The Shawshank Redemption, The Usual Suspects. Neil Gaiman novels (but particularly American Gods and Anansi Boys). Marvel Comics. James Blake, Fort Minor (and Linkin Park), Muse.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed Mt. Rundle in the Canadian Rockies... WHEN I WAS EIGHT! It left me with battle scars and a hardy attitude!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have an encyclopedic knowledge of film!
I would be overjoyed if we could learn new things from each other :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

Money, I suppose. Life experiences, certainly. Insight into the Washington EDM scene. Judaism, but only if you ask about it. Other stuff, too; I'm big on sharing :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, England, Israel, Nicaragua, Switzerland

Countries I’ve Lived In

United States
