About Me

ABOUT ME

American dude living in Los Angeles, occasionally go to other locales to check out local life elsewhere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This site is very useful for making contacts, glad to offer knowledge/expertise of my area to anyone who asks. My work schedule is heavy and unpredictable so I haven't had the opportunity to host yet.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

simply put, I think staying in one place for too long allows one to grow complacent, so visiting other parts of the world is a fun challenge and a good way to remain sharp, as a person.

Interests

Sports, particularly NFL football and ice hockey. Very interested in local sporting events and know a fair amount about cricket. Learned about it in Australia last year and still read the headlines on occasion.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll use this space to recommend kcrw.com -- LA's #1 station for brand new, eclectic music from all around the world. Available live and on-demand for free, worldwide, check it out.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

#1 travel experience so far was playing cricket on St. Kilda beach in Melbourne, Australia. They said I made a really nice run-out play.

Teach, Learn, Share

My professional expertise is in video production, but I'm pretty good with my hands and value volunteering. I guess the top thing I could offer would be advice for people looking to live in/visit "Hollywood." For people interested in how the entertainment industry works, I'd be glad to share what I know. It's very interesting working in an industry whose product is so pervasive, all over the world.

Ádemas, tengo habilidad modesta en español, y quiero mucho aprender y practicar más con otros. Trabajaba a veces en programas español (deportes en vivo) y escucho bueno, pero pienso mucho en las veces que yo necesitaba hablar. Me gustare asistir más eventos sociales, es dificil pensar completamente en la idioma pero tratare con ningun problema.
