ABOUT ME
I'm a Film Major. Born in Chicago, grew up in D.C. I was in the Army for six years, two of those years were good. I like to do just about anything, my friends constantly ask me to do things with them because i always say yes.
PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I just registered. I don't have a couch to sleep on since my house is packed with people anyway. But i always pick up hitchhikers when i'm on trips, which is a cool way to pass time and feel good about yourself.
Interests
Making my friends laugh, them making me laugh. Football(european and american), rugby (played in Arizona until i almost drowned, long story), Concerts and Theatre. Most of all, anything I haven't tried before.
- concerts
- politics
- socializing
- music
- soccer
- rugby
- mountains
Music, Movies, and Books
Slow moving films, Kubrick, Jarmusch, love good foreign movies, anything from Chan-Wook Park. Rock n' Roll mostly. Queens of the Stone Age is the best.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was driving to Chicago from Virginia a couple winters ago, i took a detour to drive through the mountains of west virginia and my car broke down. I was probably 20 miles from anything and it was snowing. I waited at my car for someone to drive by for about 8 hours. The thought of no-one coming and my possibly dying out there took me back to zero, so-to-speak. I watched the snow fall over the mountains, it was the most beautiful thing i've ever seen. Then i was rescued by a hippie in a truck.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm good with American Politics, economy, society, music, film, and a few other subjects scattered here and there. I watch too much CNN
