I always have to be learning something new. Whether it's reading new books, traveling to new places, or picking up a new hobby, that mental hum has become a constant in my life.

I also tend to find myself collecting things from tangible items to knowledge and new information, anything that I find interesting and so many things are interesting! The world is exciting precisely because of its infinite variety and complexity.

Currently working at a laboratory while I study cognitive science! Talk to me about anything scientific, philosophical, or anything that peaks your interest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"It is a big and beautiful world. Most of us live and die in the same corner where we were born and never get to see any of it. I don’t want to be most of us."

Interests

I love history, books, cultures, and especially people. I am a huge fan of The Legend of Zelda, Star Wars, Game of Thrones, you name it. I'm an avid appreciator of the arts and a frequent stargazer. I love everything about the human narrative and space and am currently saving up for a more powerful telescope.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy almost every genre of music but I especially love indie, alt rock, jazz, and classical music.

My most recent favorite movies would have to be Mad Max: Fury Road, The Imitation Game, The Road Within, Interstellar, and The Martian!

So many books I love and so many I've yet to read, but my absolute favorite authors are Albert Camus, Margaret Atwood, George Orwell, and Franz Kafka.
