About Me

ABOUT ME

I like festivals, live music, film, art/documentaries, books, craft cocktails and beer, hiking, road trips, urban exploring and abandoned buildings. I am most happy with a camera in my hand. I work as a video editor and producer. In my off time I have been working on a house in rural New England.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would rather spend my money on experiences and the people I meet in the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have been registered since college. I finally opened this website recently.

Interests

Outdoors, exploring the national parks, exploring dives and restaurants in the different pockets of the city. Culture and world events. I find art and urban history fascinating. Science, Japanese and South Korean cinema. Astronomy and the universe. Local mythology,ghost stories.

Lovecraft, Albert Camus, Kurt Vonnegut, Bret Easton Ellis, Franz Kafka, screenplays, nonfiction, biographies, film and artist memoirs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Mayan cities in Guatemala... being on top of Temple Four in Tikal, the tallest pre-columbian structure ever built by the ingenious Mayan, a civilization that flourished for centuries then mostly disappeared into the jungle.

Visiting Austria, Sicily, and Peru are high on the list too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe in a positive outlook and empathy for all life. I am not religious, and believe in civil rights for all.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A comfortable apartment that is a one bedroom with a separate large living room. I just ask for you to keep it clean and respect it like your own home, which is easy to do. An airbed and a futon I keep for my friends when visiting the city.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Bahamas, Bermuda, Canada, Finland, France, Guatemala, Italy, Malta, Peru, Scotland, United Kingdom, United States
