My favorite places to go are places I've never been before. I'm a mellow guy who thinks he's pretty funny, and I enjoy making artwork, cooking, nature, exploring, and petting animals. Always learning new things.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
This sort of community is part of a great movement of people trying to connect with each other and explore the world in a new way. I have enjoyed hosting, surfing, and going to meetups, and plan to keep it going.

Music: Mostly an indie boy. Fleet Foxes, Khruangbin, Radiohead, Father John Misty, Sturgill Simpson, Alabama Shakes, Courtney Barnett, Pavement, Orville Peck, Modest Mouse, Tame Impala, Led Zeppelin, Loving, Beach House, Vulfpeck, Skinshape, soul, blues, 90s hiphop, bluegrass Books: Vagabonding, Dubliners, You Are Here, The Stranger, a lot of nonfiction about very specific interests
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I wandered around 17 countries for about eight months with very little plan (that seems to be par for the course around you other Couchsurfing folks). I met wonderful people and learned so much. My goal is to keep having experiences like that for the rest of my life.
