Ok so basically I am just a 20 year old who is loving life and trying to live it to the fullest. I love traveling and I try to take/make every opportunity I can to be able to make memories, meet new people or experience new things. I like living life through a positive and joyful mindset as much possible because honestly, why wouldn't you? It's more fun that way. I am not very good at photography but I am trying to get better (mainly to keep me accountable to documenting my adventures.) Anyways, I'm a big people person and have no problem going and exploring new cities on my own or with my sister, Lauren Parks or brothers, Matt and David. I love my family more than anything and am close with all of them.

My Instagram name is jon.parks

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on CouchSurfing because, plain and simple, why in the world would I not be?
1) I think it is way more enjoyable to meet amazing people and create new friendships while you are off adventuring.
2) I can sleep comfortably basically anywhere so couches/matts, or even just a floor would be more than enough for me.
3) I am paying my way through school so I am pretty dang broke.

Interests

I want to say that I'm an outdoorsy guy but in all reality, I love multiple lifestyles. Basically anything from mountain biking/wing suiting to surfing, snowboarding, wake boarding, to sitting on a couch with a blanket and Chinese food, beng watching Netflix.
I love thunder basketball and OU football, but enjoy every sport, especially if it's a fun pickup game that I'm participating in. Sand Volleyball is my favorite.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a huge fan of all of the above, Music, Books and Movies. I listen to every type of music and enjoy almost all of it. Not a huge fan of screemo/heavy metal but besides that, almost always is music better than no music. Unfortunately, I am also the guy that probably can't tell you the song name and artist (I'm really bad with names) but will definitely be jamming out with you and probably know the song. I play the piano and guitar, but I'm not great at either.
I can't pick a favorite Movie because that is impossible for me. Some of my favorites are The Hobbits/LOTR, New Girl, The Office, Patriot, Braveheart, The Other Guys and Get Smart but honestly, I rarely see a movie that I didn't like.
My favorite Books for pure entertainment are Harry Potter, Eragon, Lord of the Rings, Wheel of Time, ect.
