About Me

CURRENT MISSION

A single-handed attempt to undo about half of the twentieth century.

ABOUT ME

I'm a social scientist, currently trying to write a book.

PHILOSOPHY

==Insert cliche here==

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Basically, I'll host you if (1) I have time (2) I feel up for company and (3) I think I will like you. Please don't be offended by a refusal. It just means that I'm busy or want to be alone, or that I hate you and think you suck.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed a few, hosted a few.

Interests

Human beings are pretty interesting, when they're not trying to make themselves interesting.

  • books
  • science
  • volunteering

Music, Movies, and Books

... Paul Celan ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxEGPIEraFA ... Prefab Sprout ... Cold Comfort Farm ... Hmm, these questions tend to degenerate into massive one-upmanship fests.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked as a volunteer with rough sleepers in London for a few months, so I must be a wonderful person. I've also been a backing singer in a metal band.
