About Me

I'm a very skilled individual who has been learning trades since I have been 15. I know a little of everything from carpentry to electrical. I'm a very accomplish welder for my age. The only thing I'm clueless to work on is cars. I can build a computer from scratch but I can't figure out cars. I've been a boy scout since the age of nine and I love wildness survival. I'm an awesome cook and I want to travel for a living going from job to job through a union. I love to play music I just can't sing for the life of me and I have plenty of stories from my experiences. I love meeting new people and hope to make new friends from all over through this site.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It has been my dream to travel ever since I was a little boy. My father would always tell me stories of his ventures around the United states of America and tell me about all the cities he went to. I want to see that for myself and more. I have no ties to hold me down and no worries to hold me back. I want to meet new people and experience new things in a world so vast and beautiful. I want to see it through others eyes; both the good and the bad. The biggest thing is I want to learn from it all.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite kind of music is either old school rock like AC/DC or metal like Tool but I like and appreciate all different styles of music. I love Ska and Ska punk as well as punk and some pop. Some of my favorite bands are nofx, streetlight manifesto, ACDC,Tool,this wild life, ramones, gorillaz and system of a down. Some of my favorite authors are Neil Gaiman, Markus Zusak, Legs McNeil and Sergei Lukyanenko who made please kill me ( one of my favorites. It's about the history of punk and I know the author personally) night watch, the boom thief and neverworld. As for movies I loved the Harry Potter series, I love claymation movies like the nightmare before christmas and nine. I love musicals too like Sweeny Todd.
