I'm an 20-year-old male from the Bay Area in California and I'm currently taking a year abroad and studying/traveling around Europe! I study political science and international relations, I'm eager to learn, I ask interesting questions, I love pretty much any form of exercise (especially rock climbing, soccer, surfing, and running, and I love to travel and meet new people.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm traveling Europe alone right now and I want to meet more people and occasionally get a break from the chaos of the hostels!
Music, Movies, and Books
My taste in music is pretty eclectic and I've definitely had my genre phases. However, some of my favorite artists are Jack Johnson, Khruangbin, Marcus King, Tedeshi Trucks Band, any Cumbia artist, Grateful Dead, Billy Strings, J.J Cale, Tyler Childers, Alice Phoebe Lou, John Mayer, and Cammp. My favorite movie is probably A Bronx Tale or The Book Thief. Both stories are each in their own way amazing and the acting on both cast are just incredible. My favorite book is probably A Blue Mind by Wallace J. Nichols. It's about the study of Ocean Therapy which deep dives into the relationship between Mankind and the ocean and it just gave me a great general understanding of how important our health can benefit from something as simple as the ocean.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
