Hello! My name is Benjamin, I'm 22 years old, born and raised in Dallas, Texas, and I love to read, listen to music, watch movies, hike, run, and drink beer. I'm more of a listener than a talker and I treat people with respect and dignity. I strive to be model guest wherever I am staying. Ask about me, I'd love to tell you more about myself in person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just graduated from university and I am looking to travel, cheaply, hence why I am using this website.
