CURRENT MISSION

To think and to love.

ABOUT ME

I never know what to write in these things... I'm friendly, easy-going, and enthusiastic about almost everything. I study astrophysics (stars and things) and philosophy. I travel light and on a tight budget. One day, I want to own a beehive.

PHILOSOPHY

To appreciate all the beauty in the world, to understand the world, and to help make it more beautiful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When someone asks you to include a specific word in your couch request, I like to think of the most ridiculous phrase I can use that word in that will still make sense.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couch-surfed with a great guy in San Francisco at the start of 2012, hoping to continue to couch-surf as I travel through America!

Music, Movies, and Books

"Is it not your breath that has erected and hardened the structure of your bones? And is it not a dream which none of you remember having dreamt that built your city and fashioned all there is in it? Could you but see the tides of that breath you would cease to see all else, and if you could hear the whispering of the dream you would hear no other sound."~ from The Prophet, by Khalil Gibran

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In October I used the CCD at my college's observatory to take a photograph of the Crab Nebula. I never imagined I'd get near a CCD until I was a post-grad... :D
