ABOUT ME

I'm spunky.

I'm getting my Masters in Nationalism Studies at CEU in Budapest and doing my dissertation on the Roma (gypsies), and how their culture contributes to a Hungarian national identity.

I plan on being in school for as long as possible and have no career goals to speak of besides doing good and seeing the world.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I contribute myself to the cause, and if I should be lucky enough to move somewhere besides a dorm (though I make it my mission to be a vagrant traveler for as long as possible), then I would love to offer my own comfy couch to a fellow wanderer. But if you want to meet up in Budapest I'd love to show you the town!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I lived in the Caribbean for a summer on an archaeological dig at one of the earliest synagogues in the New World. I did the drawings and measurements for the recreation of the swivel guns on the Andrew Dorria, a colonial ship that was given the first salute after U.S. independence. Everything about that summer was amazing, particularly the abundance of mango trees and crappy Caribbean beer.

I can tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue.

I'd like to learn how to play the harmonica.
