I'm all about being as open and truthful as possible with everyone that I meet. It makes it a lot easier to determine if I'm going to get along with them. I've been finding that the answer always seems to be yes. Maybe it's because I'm awesome, maybe it's because everyone is awesome. I think it's a bit of both. My straightforward nature allows people to relax and be their naturally amazing selves. Yeh, I dig it all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm working hard on paying off all of my student loans so that I can be free, free to roam the world experiencing one couch at a time. For now I am here to show you around Asheville NC!

Update: I did it! I am currently and plan on staying entirely debt free! Help me out by letting my crash on your couch.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh goodness, all the music ever. I will listen to pretty much anything. If you like it, heavy chance is I will see why you like it and get in that same groove.

I just picked up the reading habit again after a too long hiatus. I've been reading a lot of fantasy and sci-fi lately. I'm getting into a lot of philosophy books and some good nonfiction too. The main unifying theme of the books I've been reading has been new ways of thinking. The train of books that got me started again was: Jitterbug Perfume -> The Dispossessed -> Illusions.

I don't really watch movies or tv anymore. I still like it all though. Firefly, archer, futurama, GoT, veronica mars. If you want to watch tv, I'm up for it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once experienced a day of deep depression that I was able to cure with beef stew. I've never been sad since.
