About Me

I was in a PhD program at the University of Miami...hated academia and dropped out with my masters. Two months later I moved to Korea.

I have been teaching in Korea for the last few years. I speak conversational Korean and Spanish...maybe 30 seconds of French haha.

I am from Miami, Florida. I am VERY open-minded.

I look forward to meeting some good people.

If you're near Seoul, hit me up!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just booked a flight to Osaka and I can't find a place to stay.

My friend has been on this site for a while and he recommended it.

I've always enjoyed staying in hostels with a communal vibe, and I think this styly of traveling could give me better insight into the places I travel to.

Interests

My interests range from Action Bronson to Aristotle's virtue ethics.

I skateboarded for ten years until injuries stopped that.

Music, Movies, and Books

I studied English Lit and Philosophy, and I am really into Beckett, Proust, and Baudelaire...European modern writers <3

I also like Entourage, Breaking Bad, the Wire, and underground hip-hop.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I built houses in Haiti and slept in a tent for 2 weeks there. My last night I stayed in the UN embassy and got bed bugs.
