I'm currently a student studying journalism. I enjoy writing a lot, even though I haven't done nearly enough of it the past few months. I'm also a huge lover of history and photography. I'm part of at United State Colored Troops reenactment group based out of Trenton, NJ. We also do the revolutionary war period and WW1. As for my artistic pursuits, I bough a camera back in early 2015 and have been shooting photos ever since. I'm currently still an amateur with it, but I'm always learning and hope to turn it into a money maker for myself soon. Recently I've also become more interested in video too and I'm trying to add it to my list of skills. As far as ethnicity goes, I'm a complete mutt - my family has a very diverse background and I'd like to think this makes me a more unique person. If there is anything I've left out that you'd like to know about me, feel free to ask.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet new people (of course) and I think the experience of staying at the home of someone who lives in the area and can tell you about a place you're staying makes for an inherently different experience than just staying at a hotel.
