I'm a laid back maniac with a heart and head designed for either wild, nomadic roaming or complete inactivity. I'm either trekking around remote corners of the world - trying out new and exciting jobs, soaking in new cultures and meeting the most amazing people - or sitting at home in my sweatpants watching Gilmore Girls and eating ice cream. My passions are music (playing and listening to) and writing, as well as food, movies, tv, history, philosophy and amusingly esoteric facts. Incidentally, did you know hedgehogs float? I can be a little grim and maudlin at times, when the deep, swirling vortex of my perpetual existential crisis threatens to swallow me whole, but on the whole I've been told I'm mildly pleasant to spend time with. I'd like to get to know you, who you are, where you've been, what sort of lamps you would have in your dream house, how many times you've been in love, and a million other things. Maybe you'll end up in a book of mine some day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and meet those who are of a similar mind. This is a great place to do that. That should just about cover it.
