Hey! I'm a 28-year-old tattoo artist who's trying to get out more. I’m inspired by old woodcuts and engravings, which often influence my work. I speak some Spanish and love picking up bits of new languages along the way. Traveling is something I want to do more of, but life gets busy, so I’m making a real effort to get out and explore. I sometimes travel with my partner, who’s a carpenter and musician, so we come as a creative, easy-going duo. We love sharing stories, cooking new recipes, enjoying art, watching sports, and spending time outdoors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m here because I want to connect with locals and experience places in a way that’s way more personal and fulfilling than isolating myself in my own space. Couchsurfing feels like the best way to meet interesting people, swap stories, and create memories. I love sharing a meal, learning about your culture, and maybe jamming, catching a show, or exploring the outdoors together. I'm excited to be a part of this community.

Interests

I’m passionate about all things creative, from tattooing to exploring traditional and contemporary art forms. I'm also really into reptiles, and music is a big part of my life as well. I love the outdoors and try to get outside as much as possible if the weather's nice.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a pretty broad taste, genres like black and death metal, punk and grindcore, country, bluegrass, electronic and industrial, rap, pop, etc are all welcome on my playlists. I love a good story in any form, I don't take the time for films and books like I used to, but I feel like I either want an easy watch like a comedy or something that really makes me think, like reading philosophy or watching a psychological horror film.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made it to where I am today despite numerous hardships along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m happy to share what I know about tattooing, I could even draw something for you. If you like playing music, we could possibly jam. My partner is a carpenter and handy in general, so if you need help with anything around the house, he's a good person to have around. We can also cook, of course.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We’re easy-going, friendly, and love sharing stories and experiences. Whether it’s swapping music recommendations or helping out around the house, we’re here to be great guests and even better new friends.
