Hi there!

My name is Adrian and I am a writer, filmmaker, and Peace Corps Youth and Family Volunteer. I recently graduated from the University of Southern California, studying Psychology and Theater. I am passionate about exploring the world on my own, to gain new perspectives and better understand the human experience. I am energetic and enthusiastic and always stay positive. Simultaneously, I try and actively understand and combat the profound issues in our world. I read voraciously, love high quality film, enjoying any good art really, as well as being outdoors, biking, swimming, hiking, etc. I am super friendly and consider myself emotionally and socially intelligent, so I keep any awkward situations to a minimum and just try and make everyone around me comfortable and happy.

While abroad, I try and keep spending to a minimum, and meeting new people to a maximum. That's why Couchsurfing is the perfect way for me to find places to stay abroad. Hopefully we can connect soon!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

To actually understand and connect with the places I visit and create meaningful connections across arbitrary borders.

And to offer a comfortable place to stay for any traveler who may be coming through Los Angeles.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I organized fundraising and donation of nearly $20,000 to the Children's Hospital Los Angeles and Kure It Cancer Research. I also started a weekly volunteering initiative, sending 7-10 volunteers every week to feed to homeless or tutor at-risk youth.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I want to offer how I see the world based upon my unique experiences. If you can do the same, we can both increase our understanding of the human experience.
