ABOUT ME
Tall and lanky, perfect for hugs and high-fives. Let's hang out!
Im currently travelling back from a year of study in St. Petersburg Russia... hopefully stopping by a country near you!
PHILOSOPHY
I live to dance, to DANCE! But when dancing isn't possible it's best to be content with a solid thumb wrestle, an impromptu snow fight, or conversation over a tasty glass of juice. Beverages
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've hung around with some of the couch surfing folks in Saint Petersburg and they are certainly some swell individuals. I just joined, but I'm excited about the prospects of meeting, greeting, and trick or treating with cs kids around the world.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Mostly I've surfed my friends couches. I'm tall but I can fold up and sleep pretty much anywhere. When I was little, I used to prefer to sleep on the floor in a sleeping bag, and I always liked staying on the couch at my grandparents house, instead of a bed... there's just something about the roguish, novelty of couch surfing. From that last statement, you'd be right to guess that I've never really couch surfed for much longer than a week. But this is, of course, soon to change, soon to change.

Music, Movies, and Books
Three things that I probably love too much, recently: JD Salinger, Andrei Tarkovsky, Radiohead. Maybe not the most esoteric, "pique your interests" kind of selections, but, hey, I'd rather talk about my favorite media over coffee with you in person (you!) than rattle off a drony list of hipster favorites, cult-credibles, and old classics.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I ate a homemade sandwich in Sandwich alongside a hazy English Chanel coast, a brisk (and staunchly castled) bike-ride away from Canterbury. I mean, as far as amazing things go it's no skinny dipping in Lake Baikal or crossing China by bike; just a really lovely, memorable afternoon.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach English, but who doesnt these days? Otherwise I know a handful of recipes including Borscht and delicious cookies. Also, I can teach you the secrets of loving banal activities like dish washing.
