CURRENT MISSION

To spread peace, love, and happiness... one couch at a time.

ABOUT ME

I worked with computers for 8 or 9 years before burning out on it and starting film school. Graduated last year. Working on some shorts and doing occasional PA gigs. No regular work right now, so I have lots of free time!

I grew up and live in Los Angeles, but there are lots of other cities I'd rather be in (Arcata, CA... Olympia, WA... Budapest... or Antwerp, Belgium to name a few). L.A. is pretty cool, though.

PHILOSOPHY

The Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I got my first apartment, I was rarely alone there. I almost always had a friend or family member crashing on my couch.

In the Summer of 2006, I moved out of my house and camped out or enjoyed the hospitality of various friends/family until going to Belgium to crash on my best friend's floor for a few weeks. I fell in love with Antwerp and stayed for 5 months. Yes, I got my own room. :)
