About Me

I'm an engineering recent grad trying to experience the world. I've had insanely cool internships, one at Boeing building satellites and one at SpaceX building rocket engines. And I love people enthusiastic about space and all other sciency stuff.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've never really had the opportunity to travel and now I'm in my fulltime engineering job

I want to travel and this method suits me perfectly as I prefer to avoid the tourist traps. I want to live with the people and really experience the culture. I don't feel like the tourist experience allows for as authentic a connection with local people.

Interests

Thrilling activities and outdoorsy fun in the thick of nature. With no technology to ruin the vibe.

  • culture
  • cooking
  • technology

Music, Movies, and Books

Wes Anderson movies.

Oldies music. And rock, White Stripes first and for most.

John Steinbeck books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've scoured the German countryside for old castles.
I've picnicked in graveyards.
I've ran through Paris in the rain.
I've been in the same room as Elon Musk.
I was in a stampede of buffalo.
Ive touched things that have been to space.
I discovered archaeological ruins.
Ive been in Yosemite to see a meteor shower.
I once programmed bananas to be a piano so that I could play happy birthday. True statement.

Teach, Learn, Share

I once taught a man how to fish. That man had no feet.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll pitch in for everything I use. Maybe we can hangout, cook, have a good time? If you would like to be my activity partner for the duration of my stay, I'd definitely be up for finding some action. If you need help with anything just ask. I'm pretty good at figuring out stuff.

Intellectual companionship is what I have plenty of to give.
