Studying abroad at University of Cambridge, UK over the summer and traveling all around Europe after. Easy going, non-invasive, friendly guy just looking for the best of what life has to offer. I am just as happy hanging out indoors and chatting as I am going out and partying in the city. I am perfectly independent and am comfortable staying with a host that will be busy during the stay, but I am also into hanging out. Originally from California and trying to expand my knowledge through travel and meeting new people. Say hi! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet locals all over Europe and get a true feel for the different cultures that I visit. Hostels are great, but it feels very separate from the actual city life and I want to bridge that gap and live like I'm not a tourist. Will be in mainland Europe from the 1st-15th of September and where I go is totally up in the air!

Interests

Music, Bars, Chilling with friends, Studying, the likes. I am studying Economics, Philosophy, and Psychology at my home university. I also love video game, technology, reading, and good conversation. I am pretty left-moderate when it comes to politics, though I am always wishing to change my mind as a result of a good argument. That being said, I prefer the abstract and scientific over political discussion.

Music, Movies, and Books

Can't go wrong with Harry Potter, love pretty much any adult cartoons, and I read lots of non-fiction pop-psych and philosophy. Been watching lots of Rick and Morty (if you haven't seen it it's incredible), South Park, Sunny in Philadelphia, Jon Stewart, and Daredevil recently. Favorite movies include anything by Tarentino, (well-made) super hero movies, comedies with Seth Rogan or Jonah Hill, Birdman, Mad Max, etc. I am a Nintendo guy mainly when it comes to video games but I also love good first person shooters (especially call of duty Zombies), LOVE all the Bioshock and Portal games, also played Borderlands and Stick of Truth. I'm bad at "favorites" lists because I appreciate all genres and just enjoy good entertainment in any form!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving! Oh and I'm about to do much more amazing things in the next few months while seeing new sights. I am thinking that the next month will be one of the best in my life and I would love to share some of that with you!

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that a non-judgmental to life will make people happier and healthier in the end. I am passionate about education and strive to better myself through expanding my knowledge and gaining perspective about the world around me. I am friendly to a fault, but I like to think that naivety and genuine trust does much more good than harm.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good vibes and company, will help with cooking and cleaning if needed. I am not the best cook out there (damn Americans!), but I am not picky and can take you out to meals for being so gracious and letting me stay at your place.
