Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the full picture I get when I not only visit a place but get to know it's people as well.

Interests

I love to read, write, play the piano, paint, draw, swim, and do experimental cooking.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: The Shins, Regina Spektor, Kate Nash, Ed Sheeran, Joni Mitchell, but I have a fairly open mind when it comes to music and love new introductions.
Movies: Stranger Than Fiction, Admission, Amazing Grace, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty to name a few.
Books: Where do I begin? Jane Eyre, A Room With a View, A Portrait of a Lady, As I Lay Dying, The Four Feathers, Harry Potter, Howard's End, The Confessions of Georgia Nicholson, Anne of Green Gables, The King Raven series, and I really could go on for ages so I'll stop there.
