About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get to know my city

ABOUT ME

I do a lot of yoga but I'm definitely not the kind of person who you'd think does a lot of yoga. I rock climb. I have a rabbit who I love very much. I'm sarcastic and awkward and bad at conversation but I'm still really quite nice.

PHILOSOPHY

Any examination of my personal philosophy has to start with veganism; it's the ethical framework that informs most of my choices.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've now surfed in Greece and Italy, and loved every minute of it. Soon now, very soon, I am going to start hosting again.
