CURRENT MISSION

Get me to New Orleans...

ABOUT ME

I like people, and buildings, and being surprised by the small things. I am a terrible cynic with an unshakeable faith in humanity and an unhealthy interest in comic books and plastic sushi.

PHILOSOPHY

'If we're stuck on this ship and it's sinking, then we might as well have a parade'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
