Hello CS - I am a guy interested in learning as much as I can about the world and how it works, in all its messy detail. I have a background in architecture and urban design - I love learning the specific flavor of each city. People would describe me as laid-back, adaptable, friendly and adventurous.

I grew up making music and it remains very important to me still. If you can play something, even better - let's make some music!

I graduated in 2014 from the University at Buffalo with a degree in Architecture. Worked for one full year and found myself feeling stuck... So I did the smart thing and quit my job! I have been traveling and experiencing the world since; here we are today.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I enjoy discovering what people are passionate about - that's the best way to learn new things. Chances are you are an expert in something I'm not. CS is a great way meet local people willing to share their experiences and talents.

"Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people." - Carl Sagan

a dash of nihilism and absurdity..

I learn new things about myself and the world everyday

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I am happy to offer English tips or conversation as you wish. If you need someone to beatbox for your freestyle I'm more than happy to oblige. =) I love learning new languages - especially practicing my Spanish, which needs as much help as it can get.

Let's make music! (I sing and play the drums)

I can teach you new frisbee throws =)

If the option is there I try to cook with and for hosts - just simple dishes - I'd love to learn a new dish from you.
