About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To break out of my comfort zone and meet new and interesting people, attend some CS events, learn things about other languages and cultures.
Also, I think It's a lot more enlightening and way more fun to stay with people who know the city than it is to stay in hotels or hostels.

Interests

Football!!!! (Or Soccer as we Americans call it for some reason): I am a huge Football fan. I follow the Premier League and UEFA very closely and I play a lot as well. Go Liverpool!
Photography...appreciating it not doing it haha. I took a few photography classes in school but I wasn't very good at it so gave up taking pictures. I really do love and admire photography though, Landscapes are my favorite-The world is an amazing place, I want to see more of it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I love music...well most kinds of music. Can't say I'm much of a Jazz fan. But I like everything from Mozart, to Metallica, Pantera and Iron Maiden to Taylor Swift, Rhianna, and Katy Perry to Armin Van Buuren, and Tiesto, to Pink Floyd, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, to 2-Pac and Biggie. I'm sure whatever your into, Ill be into to some of it too, if not most of it.

Movies: I can talk about movies all day. Not so much older movies but its from 1990 on I've probably seen it. The Big Lebowski, Heat, anything by David Fincher, Wes Anderson, and Tarantino, Anchorman, Drive, Theory of Everything, Birdman, Batman, Inception, Dumb and Dumber, Lord of the RIngs, Star Wars, Star Trek, The Bourne movies, Die Hard, Tommy Boy, Toy Story, Etc...I could go on forever.

Books: Anything by Poe
