I'm a travel photographer and filmmaker 'based' out of Nashville, Tennessee, but I'm almost always on the road! Currently in Hawaii for a few weeks before heading back home. There are few things I enjoy more than traveling, meeting locals, and eating local food, so if you're down, let's hang!
Interested in Adventure Sports
Interested in Basketball
Fluent in English
Learning Swahili
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Throughout all of my traveling, I've noticed one thing- the trips that stand out the most are the ones where I got to meet and hang with the locals. So I'm just looking to do that as much as possible!
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I've made it through my whole life without eating cheetos or cheesecake. I lived in Kenya for a summer working to bring street children off of the street. I've done multiple of the traditional college road trips you see in movies. I ran and hid from cops trying to arrest me in Kenya because I wasn't carrying my passport. I snuck into Frozen on Ice in Toronto and watched it from the Toronto Blue Jays upper deck.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Any advice on things to do in Nashville, especially the best places to eat. Hopefully a place to crash and some good conversation. A personal tour guide of Nashville, (although if you want to do your own thing, then by all means, go ahead) If you're interested in photography, any photography locations.
My Interests
Traveling literally anywhere, photography, hot wings, talking to people, movies, basketball, anything outdoors, good food, and ridiculous amounts of Dr. Pepper.
