I live in Chicago for the moment. Hoping to venture out of the city soon! I am a writer, a budding performance artist (this is a very generous description... ask me more if you are curious!), and editor. Food, coffee, and wine are some of my favorite things in life, especially while reading an engrossing book or engaging in stimulating conversation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Explore new places! Meet new people! Learn new recipes... yes, I will steal your favorite risotto recipe; thanks in advance!

Interests

Feminism. Queer things. BOOKS, SO MUCH BOOKS, but poetry and essays and the weird creatures in between. Language: I've studied French and Spanish, but have always been interested in Russian and Japanese as well. The science of food, coffee, and making my own liqueur.
