usually calm, secretly excited, outwardly/ simultaneously stoic and 100% sass

i tend to be physically restless and like to bounce around from place to place, new and old. i like exploring where the locals hang, places where i can get free shit and visiting abandoned / haunted & historically laden sites with proper respect and reverence

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

i enjoy discerning the anti-lonely planet factoids of a place from individual vantage points. couchsurfing is a good character study at the intersections of geography - place - and psychology.

i'm also very friendly and kind of weird and interesting so you should take me to your favorite bar

Interests

road trips and spontaneous travel, bad writing, bad movies, regional history, eating raw meat, conspiracy theories and anti-history, geological formations, queer and trans ppl of color shit, the poetry you like and why you like it, decolonizing while learning how to perform capitalism better ( inspired by couchsurfing when it decided to be a VC-backed for-profit in 2011 haha )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

born in california and never been to disney land how's that for a life accomplishment

Teach, Learn, Share

my brain is a smorgasbord of the strangest useless information you'll find on the internet and more

technical applied skills may be unreliable. i do know how movie making works and other media bullshit, i like regional trivialities and connection; also a pro at finding free parking in major urban districts in the united states

What I Can Share with Hosts

stories of nonsensical life decisions and searing cynicism to uplift your spirits

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Cambodia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Laos, Mexico, Morocco, New Zealand, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom, Viet Nam
