My name is Benjamin Hoover and I'm soon to be 21 years old. I live my summers in the Ohio village of Put-In-Bay on South Bass Island, and my winters tend to be at my parents house also in Ohio.

I'm not really sure what to write to be honest...

I've been described as a hippy because I like to live as simplistic lifestyle. I don't have a lot of things....all I own can fit in one duffle bag. I would rather sleep on a couch or a floor instead of a bed. I guess you could say it's mostly because i look like one, If I've managed to figure out how to put up a profile picture then you know what I mean. I try to keep an open mind and an open heart, all I can say is that I think i'm a pretty trustworthy person and I'm really greatful that you're taking the time to read this.

* If you want to know more about me PLEASE CONTACT ME! I am an open book you can ask me anything.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite Movies - Battleship, Space Jam, Jurassic World, Grandma's Boy

Favorite Music - I gravitate more towards Rap, Heavy Metal, and whatever is currently "mainstream" but I can't think of any kind of music I dislike at the moment.

Favorite Books - The Five Chinese Brothers (a picture book from 4th grade), and The Karma Machine (currently reading seems pretty good).
