CURRENT MISSION

Be constantly active. Never, ever be bored.

ABOUT ME

I like to live my life in a state of constant excitement and happiness.

I live by the statement "work hard, play hard." In terms of "work," I am just starting a job consulting for life-science companies. In terms of "play," I am up for anything, whether it be dancing all night or just sitting around having thoughtful conversations with awesome people.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed my way throughout Europe in 2012. Hosted and/or met great people in Boston. I just gave up my 1-bedroom to go back to a 3-roommate setting, so hosting won't be an option for the foreseeable future. But still down to meet & hang out if everything works out.

Interessi

Some interests/hobbies:
-hiking: I grew up in Miami...give me some elevation!
-reading: mostly everything that contains a beautiful sentence or two
-creative writing: short stories and poetry
-running: especially with good podcasts or music in my ears
-drawing: random pencil sketches & Chinese watercolor landscapes

I also like: dark chocolate, floor plans, knowing which way is north, IPAs, caffeine, organization, gum, esoteric vocabulary, the French Revolution, exploring cities by foot

Musica, film e libri

All movies are fun except perhaps those that try too hard to be deep. I only watch movies with other people, whether it be sneaking beers into movie theaters for comedies or watching dramas on the couch with my boyfriend.

Musical preferences are situational. Hip-hop and house for dance. Alternative/Indie for mostly every other time. Some favorites: Stars, Of Montreal, The Killers, Explosions in the Sky.

Books are fantastic. I was one of those kids who sneaked flashlights and novels into bed so I could read all night under the covers. Some great authors: Michael Lewis, John Irving, Margaret Atwood, Nicole Krauss

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Reading beautiful prose. Lying in a hammock with my best friend in the Gili Islands. Jumping off a waterfall into ice-cold New Zealand waters.

Insegna, impara, condividi

Basically I want to learn everything (does this make me greedy?)

What can I teach? Anything you may want to know that I may know something about! I know quite a bit about the brain and drug development and poetry, so we can start there :)!
