I'm Patrick! I'm a Seattle native, never lived anywhere else, finally jumping out of that nest to go see what's out there!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've gotta go out and see the world before I get tied down with actual responsibilities!

Interests

I like making stuff. What I specifically like making changes constantly, but generally sticks with some form of music or photography.

• performing arts
• photography
• cooking
• music
• experimental music
• video art
• music production
• installation art

Music, Movies, and Books

All over the place, but generally the weirder the better.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteering as a photographer for KEXP, the radio station that almost singlehandedly keeps Seattle music alive, has been pretty amazing! I recently got to stand on the side of the stage with my camera to watch The Gits play an incredible set with Rachel Flotard of Visqueen right underneath the Space Needle and a beautiful early June sunset.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to record a collaborative album across the country!!

If you're a musician and you have a couch for me to surf, let me know if you wanna get in on this!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking and photography!

I went to culinary school and I've worked in a bunch of kitchens and I would happily make you all kinds of tasty treats for as long as I'm staying!

I've been taking pictures professionally for a few years so if you need a new profile pic or a portrait of your cat to put on the back cover of the book it just wrote or even just photos of your house for future Couchsurfers, I can do that!
