CURRENT MISSION

To come up with a mission statement which will make everyone like me.

ABOUT ME

My whole life has really just been a preamble to the rest of my life. That's the part which comes next. I don't know where the road will take me next, but I do know I'd like to stop at some point on the side of it for a candy bar or a soda or something.

PHILOSOPHY

If you can't deal with your own shit, what can you deal with?

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I mostly have participated in CS in the Middle East, but if I end up spending more time in America I'll try and participate here as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I once went on a CS trip to Sebastia. I also surfed a bit in Haifa one time.

兴趣

I'm interested in politics, which is a hard subject to have studied because everyone else is already an expert. I like learning, but only in the vague, unorganized way which requires no actual commitment. I also like food, in fact it's one of my main reasons for travelling. Sure, people in new places are interesting, but you can't eat them. Usually.

• education
• dining
• politics
• traveling
• juggling
• teaching
• history

音乐、电影和书籍

Books-Fiction:Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, Orson Scott Card, bad fantasy novels, assorted others

Movies: Things which are funny and/or meaningful
Music: Rap from the 90s, alternative Rock, things which are upbeat, things which I can dance to.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I met the (a?) Palestinian mafia in Hebron one time. Remind me to tell you about that sometime.

教，学，和分享

While some have said it's always an education hanging out with me, I think they were being sarcastic. I can probably tell you one or two things you didn't know about the recent history of the Middle East. I could try to teach you how to juggle, if you've got the balls. I try and teach people how to make bad puns all the time, but they tell me I'm just being obnoxious.
