I recently got out of the US Marine Corps and will soon be moving to Los Angeles for school. Once I have my own place settlesdI will gladly open it up for hosting.
I am taking some time to travel around as much as possible before next year's fall semester. Besides that, I am a writer working on another novel and enjoy meeting new people who broaden my cultural and social horizons. I am very laid back and open to new experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here because I enjoy meeting new people and exploring new cultures. You can visit a place a thousand times, but only the people who live there can really show you what that place means to them...and coincidently where the good watering holes are.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Hugh Laurie, Gaslight Anthem, The Hold Steady, DropKick Murphy's, In This Moment, and 70's Rock to name some.

Movies: Do not get me started. I am a movie nut and will definitively begin talking your ear off like an announcer who just witnessed their team win the World Cup.

Books: A lot of twentieth-century novels, The Sun Also Rises, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and Ham on Rye to name a few.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am not beyond doing some manual labor for you for starters. I am also very willing to share a tab or a bottle with you and if you're willing to show me around I will make it worth your time.
