I'm a Californian queer through and through, originally from LA and in San Francisco for my MA. I'm involved in advocacy for queer and trans folks and study sexuality studies. I'm also a travel lover who (in covid-safe times) travels from city to city looking for the best views and vegan food and coffee. I'm relatively laid back and love nature, reading, cooking, and learning and talking about gender and sexuality!
*fully vaxxed and will only stay with people who are too*
*not looking for dates or hookups*
*will not accept friend requests from people I haven't met in person*

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I'm headed to Chicago for a bit less than a week and intend to have fun and meet folks despite the weather (very intimidating to a California queer like myself). Not looking for a place to stay but would love to connect!

Musica, film e libri

My music taste is all over the place from folk to French pop to soul to k-pop. Some of my favorite artists are Passenger, Allison Russel, and the Marías, but they shift all the time. Always want music recommendations!

One of my favorite books of all time - In The Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado. I also love Russian literature (Anna Karenina, The Idiot) and nonfiction about gender, sexuality, and the social sciences.

As for TV, I love Legendary, Dragula, The Great British Baking Show, Downton Abbey, Schitt's Creek, and most recently, shitty reality TV. Some of my favorite films - Atlantique, Tangerine, Incendies, Call Me Madam, Some Like It Hot, Always Be My Maybe, Palm Springs. I love romance, comedy, and can't do horror :/ wish I could!

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I traveled to Europe to study abroad in France - and then traveled all through Western Europe alone, making lots of Couchsurfing friends along the way. One of my favorite moment from that trip was spending New Years in the Bavarian forest at an environmental commune, watching fireworks and fire juggling all night.

Insegna, impara, condividi

Always down to share knowledge on gender and sexuality, practice French, and tell stories from my travels and experiences. I love to listen though and can't wait to hear your stories and learn about your cities!

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I can't wait to share stories and advice and whatever else I can! I love listening to people and their experiences, and I'm respectful of time and space, as well.
