CURRENT MISSION

To discover and promote the things I find beautiful in the world.

ABOUT ME

Passionate people are my people.
I like jumping and grinning and learning new things, I like being outside, I like the daily show, I like ginger beer, and I probably like you!
I have trouble sitting still, so I like to bounce around from place to place, meeting new people and discovering how all the things in the world are fungible. OH, and fungus, I think fungus is cool.
I'm from michigan origionally, but I try not to be tied down anywhere. I've lived in Boston, San Francisco, and Egypt for a bit. I love going new places and meeting new people. I get bored if I'm not learning. I get restless if I'm not challenged. Want to do a project together?

Here is a haiku. Just for you.

The world is so cool
Lets enjoy it together
I want to meet you!

PHILOSOPHY

Be involved in what you're doing, be passionate. Otherwise you're wasting your time. The world is so great! and we get to live in it! lets make the most of that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a couch for you because you've had couches for me. I love travel, and I know how financially taxing it can be, so I want to ease the burden on my kindred spirits. I've found some of the most interesting people through CS, and I want to me more active. I check my email a lot, so if you're stuck, or lonely, or bored, or feel like baking bread or something - send me a message! I'd love to meet you.
