About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living for Stories.

ABOUT ME

I've unlearned to describe me. There is an essence that I've ceased to attempt to write down though I still think about how to write it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am more than happy to meet couchsurfers for coffee, drink, dessert, food, walking around.... :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed in Paris through a friend I met on here. Loved it. I've hosted before and I enjoyed the experience.

Interests

Words, words, words.

Cafe con leche.Wine.Cheesecake.

Culture: art, performance, expression.

Family. Friends. Depth and Joy.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Literature. Poetry and good fiction are my refuge.
Pablo Neruda. Roald Dahl. Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Junot Diaz. Latin American Cultural Studies. Harry Potter. Jane Eyre.

Nothing like a night of jazz...at the bar or at home.
Ella Fitzgerald. John Coltrane. Oscar Peterson.

Also-- nothing like a night out salsa dancing...provided there are good dancers on the floor.
Fania All Stars. Ruben Blades. Willie Colon. Hector Lavoe. Charlie Palmieri.

I really enjoy going to a movie and then walking around the City while contemplating what I saw. I also really enjoy making references to Mel Brook movies and identifying with Woody Allen.
Paris, Je t'aime. Midnight in Paris. Manhattan. Amadeus. Young Frankenstein. Elf.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
