CURRENT MISSION

Figure it all out.

ABOUT ME

I'm working on my masters in American Material Culture (history of stuff), working on making the perfect bread, trying not to watch too many movies, and am reading Hemingway's A Moveable Feast over and over.

PHILOSOPHY

I only spend money on things I need and things I love. All the rest I can do without.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed, now hosting, later hopefully more surfing...

Interests

I love to read. I love to watch, discuss, and argue about movies. I haunt film blogs. I cook (with mixed results) and bake (much more consistent results). I travel when I can. And I am most at home when I'm on my feet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every time I try to think up the perfect answer to this, my thoughts fail me. Too many, too few, too understated to explain, too overwhelming to express. Stay tuned; I'll come up with something good.
