CURRENT MISSION

See the UK, write a little better every day, and come back home in one piece

ABOUT ME

Currently marching through Ireland and the UK as part of my study of queer communities and amateur writing. Taking a few months to learn how to live out in the big wide world before I have to rejoin reality and get a job. I'm running a blog on my travels:

PHILOSOPHY

I don't have a succinct 'philosophy', exactly. Just a series of moods and perspectives I cycle through.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm only recently getting involved with CS, I've heard nothing but good things for years and just now find myself with the need. I'm primarily using it to surf now, but when my partner and I are secure we hope to be able to give back to anyone traveling to the States.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nothing just yet, but I haven't heard any bad stories so far, and with a project this ambitious that's surprisingly good news.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I've slept in a room made of ice. After spending a few days in northern Sweden during the winter, the Icehotel was actually not bad.

教，学，和分享

I suppose I know a good bit about queer and gender theory, a bit about writing, and some practical skills (basic repairs and origami). Nothing I can really spell out, though.
