ABOUT ME My day usually starts off with a hot cup of coffee (because damn, can you beat the smell of just brewed coffee?). I always try to kick-start my day early, so you can say I'm a (pleasant) morning person. My interest and main focus right now would be photography (ever used a film camera? perhaps you can give me some notes on the developing process), but mixed media would better describe my work. I enjoy deeply taking portraits of people in their most comfortable setting, but of course my interest doesn't only extend to such photos--I'm a curious person and will try and capture anything that captures my eye. I'm always interested in hearing/discussing topics such as written comedy, Queer Theory, Xicanisma, and (your) origin/background--with everything and anything in-between. PHILOSOPHY Keep learning and moving forward.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I host and and on occasion meet-up with travelers (which I wish I could do more often). As for surfing, I haven't had the pleasure of traveling to any other city recently so I haven't been hosted by anyone--yet. My upcoming trip has got me supa excited, though, to put in my requests and start seeing and meeting new faces. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Good! I've hosted and met up with people and have heard some good stories. I'm intrigued to see who I'll be meeting next.
Musique, films et livres
This list could be endless--seriously. I'm open to new artists and genres (and maybe you can recommend some that you enjoy), but here is a list of what I've gained a liking for (with a lot being left out): MUSIC: -Blood Orange -Chicano Batman -Kali Uchis -Willis Earl Beal -James Blake -Little Dragon -Erykah Badu -Amy Winehouse -Kanye West -Devendra Banhart -Lykke Li -Solomon Burke MOVIES: -Little Miss Sunshine -Beginners -The Artist is Present -Exit Through the Gift Shop -10 Things I Hate About You -Mostly all Tarantino films -Lars von Trier films BOOKS: Currently reading: Laughable Loves by Milan Kundera
Enseigner, apprendre, partager
Everyone has a story, a lifestyle, a routine...I want to be able to hear and see as many of those as I can.
Ce que je peux offrir à mes hôtes
When I have guests over I want them to feel comfortable so if you desire to use the kitchen, cook with the pots and pans, and look through our growing collection of vinyls you're very welcome to. I'll have pillows, blankets, and shower towels ready to go!
