PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed at two hosts' while looking for an apartment in Nancy, France and it completely converted me to the "Church" of Couchsurfing ;) Everyone I have met as hosts (or friends of hosts) is so kind, loving, and eager to help. I am amazed and so happy that people like this exist all over the world, and that I get to laugh, explore, eat, drink, and play with them. I'm normally not this cliche but Couchsurfing makes me believe in the power of good people!

Interests

I love people watching, taking long walks, going to the cinema, and experimenting with food. I performed improv and stand-up comedy in college -- I tend to make people laugh, whether on purpose or because I accidentally walked into a table (this has happened. several times).

Music, Movies, and Books

Roald Dahl for the child in me, Isaac Bashevis Singer for the adult.

As for movies, I love weird directors like David Lynch and Lars von Trier, as well as great comedies like the Big Lebowski.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being scrubbed down by an old topless turkish lady at the turkish baths in Istanbul.
