Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To finish my studies (at least officially), see and take part in interesting art, and travel Central Europe
ABOUT ME
Slightly aimless but trying to keep my sense of fascination intact
PHILOSOPHY
This is interesting. I have a lot of views but am not sure how to describe them in a small box.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I haven't fully hosted yet, but I was able to show several people around town, and it was a great experience. I would love to host when I'm more settled.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've surfed once so far, and it was a great experience, though a short one. A friend, her daughter, and I stayed in southeast Mass for a concert; our hostess was very friendly and had a lot of great children's books. The next morning we went to the beach and collected rocks.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I can think of much more than just one: swimming with 30 others for a friend's film shoot, visiting Slavin cemetary in Vyšehrad and Sedlec ossuary in Kutná Hora, having the experience of living as both genders and settling somewhere in between, seeing San Francisco in the middle of the night from the top of a hill, too many amazing pieces of art and music to count
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to cook, crochet, and learn languages (or anything, really). Perhaps we can make a meal together, or you could teach me some of your language, or if you are learning English I could help you practice. Word games are lots of fun, too. I am also willing to help with math homework, or teach crochet. I like outdoor activities such as hiking but have little experience, so I would like to learn more. I am also interested learning to pick mushrooms for food (with someone VERY experienced, of course!).
