CURRENT MISSION

To find a boat to work on in Palma

ABOUT ME

I have a degree in English, was an Au Pair in Berlin, love trees (climbing them mostly) and am obsessed with Haruki Murakami. I speak Spanish well enough that I am not afraid to travel in Spanish speaking countries alone, but not well enough that I wouldn't completely embarrass myself by using it here. I am fluent in German.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm working on it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For years I have been told to get a Couch Surfing account, but as I have never had my own apartment, and had enough friends in the countries I was traveling in (England, Spain, Germany, Czech Republic, etc.) I never felt the need. Now I will arrive to Cabo San Lucas poor as anything and not knowing a single soul....so I am ready to 'participate'.

Interests

Hiking, sailing, climbing trees, reading books, and flowers because guys are allowed to like flowers too. I am also interested in not sleeping on the streets, which is quite topical.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: The End of the Affair by Graham Green. The Wind-up Bird Chronicles by Haruki Murakami. Njal's Saga, the icelandic tale. Harry Potter (taught me how to read). One Hundred Years of Solitude. Too much music to list but Beirut never gets old.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailing across the Atlantic Ocean. Running from a bear in the woods.
