I am the middle child of four brothers. I study English (very ready to be done with school) at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, TN. I enjoy watching movies from all over the world and from all different times. I like to read science fiction, philosophy, religion, and self-improvement. I am an amateur filmmaker, having directed and written 5 short films and 1 documentary (about a trip to Trinidad & Tobago, link below). I also like swimming.

I am traveling because I want to meet new people in unfamiliar places and eat unfamiliar things. All this in order to grow myself as a human being.

My current philosophy for life is to say "Yes" more often and do the things that I fear most, this to me is the only way to live a fulfilling, meaningful life. I am very relaxed and amiable (I've been told that I'm an "old soul" by six different people). I like to have fun, explore, and make new friends, and occasionally go off on my own for some quiet contemplation. Also I have a very goofy sense of humor.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing seems like the best way to get integrated with local culture and the best way to meet new people. It is also a great way to find out about the rare gems that most people do not know about in the places that you visit.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music: I like Radiohead, Fleet Foxes, Foster the People, Iron & Wine, Lord Huron, and anything I can dance to.

Movies: I like Wes Anderson movies, Coen Brothers movies.

I love the science fiction novels of Philip K. Dick. I've also been reading a fair amount of esoteric/religious philosophy (don't worry, I won't make you talk about it).

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Wrote, directed, edited, and produced a 15-minute short film. This was a defining moment for me because of all of the unfamiliar things I had to learn to do, mainly speaking with people that I'd never met to see if they wanted to help out.
