CURRENT MISSION

European Adventures!

ABOUT ME

Well now. I don't think that I can tell you EVERYTHING about me here, but I'll try to give you a good synopsis. I am an American college student who is 21 years. I have been living on the East Coast and the Midwest for my entire life, and am a resident of Wisconsin for about 8 years. I just recently flew to Spain, where I am currently studying for one semester. I am quite tall (6'3") which tends to be helpful when going to concerts or in large crowds. Anything else that you wish to know about you can ask me. Anything at all. :-)

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in good people. I know that there are many different philosophies of how to live one's life, but I truly think that I can connect to anyone if they have a good heart. I enjoy meeting those who are different than me. If we can connect on some basic levels, I can treat almost anyone with respect and kindness.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I currently am looking to travel to different European countries! I also anticipate being able to share a couch for fellow surfers once I return to the states, for anyone looking to visit Madison.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted twice- once officially, and once unofficially.

音乐、电影和书籍

Soundtracks, electronic, classical, alternative rock, drum & bass, and a number of other genres for music.

For cinema, Donnie Darko and A Clockwork Orange are towards the top of the list. Christopher Nolan's work is also very solid (Prestige, Memento, etc), Classic disney films, Moon, The Truman Show, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Snatch, John Hughes films before the 90s, and many others. Ask me if you wish to know more.

Malcolm Gladwell is one of my favorite authors. I also am a big fan of Harry Potter, as well and the Ender's Game series.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I performed with my show choir in Disneyworld in Orlando Florida during my senior year of high school, and I'll never forget it.

The most amazing thing that I've SEEN are the landscapes of Arizona with my family over last summer. It was by far the most beautiful geography I've ever seen.

教，学，和分享

I have studied some concepts of cinematography and the film production industry. Even though I still am learning more and more about how people actually apply these elements, I have enough knowledge to speak about the specific techniques as they're being used in a specific film.

I also know the basic technique for all International Standard and Latin ballroom dances (except Paso Doble), so if you would like to learn how to dance and have some sort of open space, preferably a smooth floor, I can teach you a few fundamentals.

I would like to LEARN more about music scene of Europe, as well as how to cook new things.
