Hi! My real name is Gabriel Ouzounian, but I was a fool and signed in with Facebook.
With that out of the way, I am a frequent traveler and photographer who loves to meet new people. I enjoy trying new activities, seeing the world in different ways, and listening to philosophies (personal and general.)
I am always listening to new books (just now reading The Unbearable Lightness of Being), checking out new movies, playing some Mario Kart or card/board games.

Although, I am sensitive to the hosts wishes, and totally understand if all that is permitted is a good nights sleep.

Here's hoping to meeting some rad new people on the road! Cheers!

P.S. Currently I am travelling with my Russian friend, who is also quite nice. Her name is Sonya, she is 23 and she is studying in Ann Arbor as a business major, though she is working as a journalist internationally and has a large brain.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are experimenting with travelling long distances on the cheap. Thus far, from Michigan, we have spent less than $300 combined.

Also, we both enjoy making new friends and think that seeing the country is only half of the cross country experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

Most any music,

Catch 22, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, David Sidaris, Shadow of the Wind, and some occasional crappy sci-fi novela,

Movies? Far too many to count, but if it has Bruce Campbell, Nathon Fillion or Leo Di Caprio in it, I'm probably a fan. Bad horror, Super Hero Flicks, Drama, whatever.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've traveled to Africa and danced with actual native people. Also, when I was 8, I won third place in a state wide Karate Championship.

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to teach photography, learn languages and new bands to listen to, share recipes to really good food.
