CURRENT MISSION

Becoming myself.

ABOUT ME

Right now I'm really into school and my bike. Sometimes I'm loud and talkative, sometimes I'm quiet and reserved. I spend a lot of time in my own head, but I'm learning to make better connections with people.

I've recently gotten back from a semester in England, and am now working on my final year of school. It's turning out that I'm the busiest human right now and won't make a very good host during the week at all. If you come to Chas on a weekend though I'll be more than happy to have you stay at mine and show/tell you all the cool places in the city. I'll put this under couch info too, just so no one misses it.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to live. I don't really care whether there's a greater purpose or what happens when we die. The world we're in is so phenomenally magnificent in so many smaller ways, and I'm interested in appreciating that for what it is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was able to surf a couple times in the UK and I'm excited to start returning the favor! Come stay with me in Charleston!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with friends for extended periods and actually properly couchsurfed a couple times in the UK. I love the idea of hosting and will probably start trying to meet people at home through the site.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every sunset. Someday I'll be up early enough (or late enough) to catch sunrise.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make bread (though it will take a couple hours); I can talk your head off about analog photography; I might teach you about gender whether you want me to or not; I can teach you some knitting basics, or you could teach me some more complex stitches. And like everyone else, I want to learn guitar! Or I could teach you a few basic chords if you're even less musical than I.

I would love to learn just about anything you lovely people can offer.
