COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couldn't Have traveled through Europe without it! Not to mention all of the wonderful people and experiences that happened along the way.

Interests

jazz and Rumi, late night musings, dancing with fire or in empty alleyways, getting lost in foreign cities, laughter without reason, the vivid colors of orange like the ones found in desert sunsets, the taste of rain and red wine, perusing the minds of philosophers and friends, unseen beauty and art, salsa or bachata or lindy or argentian tango, or sleazy blues, random acts of kindness, photographing the eccentricities of the world, inky scribbles on park benches, juicy fruits, midnight picnics
