Hey! My name is Nathan Streifel. I'm an actor and bartender who lives in Hollywood, California. I love meeting cool people, exploring fun new places and experiences, and all around positive vibes. I'm pretty chill and easy going. I have my Masters degree in Acting from DePaul University in Chicago where I studied, and I grew up in a small logging town in Washington State. I play classical piano, read tarot cards, and I love board games and games in general! I also love chilling by the pool and relaxing with a cold beverage. I'm also gay, and always love meeting other LGBTQ people and allies. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm planning some traveling this year to Spanish speaking countries, and just wanted to connect with people from outside of the US. Make friends, and connect with people traveling to Los Angeles as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love most all types of music. If I'm dancing I love disco, house, deep house, upbeat electronic, and anything with happy vibes. I love to feel positive and good to the beat. If I'm listening to music I love most genres, particularly pop, hip-hop, r&b, folk, and classic rock.

My favorite movies are: There Will Be Blood, What About Bob?, The Sword in the Stone, Lord of the Rings, Being John Malkovich, The Phantom Thread, Hook, Sound of Music

Books: I love self help, anything to do with goal setting, achievement, mindfulness, skill acquisition. For pleasure I enjoy fantasy and am currently on book 11 (!) of the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan.
