Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to go on small adventures.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm rather new to couchsurfing at this point. Sure, I've done the informal crashing on friends' couches, but surely that will be nothing compared to the adventures that await me in this shiny and new World of Couchsurfing.

Interests

Stiltwalking, sustainability, giant puppets, improv that is everywhere, webcomics, urban gardening, costumes, creative anachronisms, bubbles, toes in mud, swing dancing, blues dancing, picking up litter, linguistic esoterica, theater, volunteering, just subversion, Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, listening, geekiness, lighthearted significance, belly and hoop dancing, compost, biofuels, theater, pouring summer rain, hugs, music, and possibilities.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy most music, but I can tire quickly of reggae, country-radio-style country, rap, and death metal.
A sampling of artists I like:
Happa Tai (favorite song - YATTA)
Michael Buble
Avett Brothers
Reina del Cid
Chromeo
Anais Mitchell
Lizzy Ross
MIKA
The Decemberists
The Clockwork Quartet
Norwegian Recycling
O-Zone (favorite song - Dragostea din tei)
Caramelldansen (song)
Iron and Wine
I really like musicians on youtube who do covers or original works. I enjoy finding new, beautiful, foreign music.
If music is live, I'm almost sure to enjoy it.
I like music that I know how to dance to, like swing or blues.

Mmmbooks. Four of my favorites are Leaves of Grass, Peter Pan, The Bacchae, and Food Not Lawns.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hugged Woody Flowers and he signed one of my golden cowgirl boots.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy trying baking experiments. Perhaps we can share in the deliciousness?

I'm also happy to help out with chores around the house.

Bermuda, Greece, United States
