ABOUT ME

Filmmaker and Adventure Seeker

PHILOSOPHY

I love the indoors and the outdoors, if its the city or country I'm always looking for an amazing experience and really enjoy people that are looking for one as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By meeting amazing people and giving them a chance to experience the culture of the place I live.

Also hopefully soon by sleeping on as many couches as possible and hearing peoples stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My friends and I were exploring around the high steel bridge, which is this random 500 ft (152.4 meters) tall bridge in the Olympics. Anyways we went down to the river and when we came back up this renegade bungee jumping crew was setting up along the bridge. They had even been fined and kicked off another bridge the same day! So yeah, we got to see these crazy guys take 475-490 ft falls (their goal was to touch the water). Oh, I will totally take you to this place, its great.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play music, so I would love to jam anytime. I can play guitar and a little drums so if you want to learn some chords or basic drum beats I would be more than happy to teach some stuff. I love rock climbing, and the outdoors in general, so if your up for going on an awesome outdoors adventure I'll show you some cool spots. I love speaking Spanish and if you speak as well and we have some cool conversations that would be awesome.
