Hi! Thanks for looking at my page and considering me as a host/surfer!
I have had a lot of CS experience at this point and still love every opportunity.

Humanity is beautiful- the good and ugly.

I like to talk and hang out with my couch surfers! I have a car and like to show people around. I can hold a conversation about pretty much anything...try me!

People say I have a big personality, I think I'm quiet. I'll let you decide :)

Semi-fluent in French.

Music, Movies, and Books

Honestly, I guess I've been into Indie Electronica recently.
I have a car with good bass, so if the music flows, it plays.

I don't like movies to much, I read a lot of political information, and read mainly college textbooks.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well I have done some interesting stuff in my short amount of years. I can offer stories, advice about Alaska, and a return offer on a place to stay if you are ever in Oregon or Alaska :)

If your going to Alaska DO NOT
I repeat DO NOT
