I'm a recent grad from Reed College in Portland, Oregon where I studied comparative literature in French and Russian. I'm also a dancer and artist. My preferred mediums are ink, ceramics, and oil paints.

I've lived in Vermont most of my life on an old farmhouse keeping pigeons, chickens, pigs, bees a few dogs, and more! Vermont has a very green and mountainous landscape which has good hiking, and skiing. In the summer I swim and sail in Lake Champlain and in winter I go ice skating on it. I'm experienced in plant-based cooking from being vegetarian 7 years and vegan for 3 though I'm open to eating anything now.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Meeting real people who can share with me the REAL side of their city or hometown rather than a superficial guide online or otherwise.

I'm sorry for my terrible response rate. I don't have any notification for this account and through my semesters as a student, I often go inactive, but will try to do better in the future!
