Greetings denizens of the couch surfing community,

Rock climbing, fishing, surfing, tangoing, sculpting, cooking, laughter yoga, kick boxing, chess, night-clubbing, televisioning, or absolutely nothing at all.

Your interests are my interests [see my interests below :)]

I've spent the last four years working with kids (3-21) with developmental disabilities. I went to school with a focus on fine art--mostly painting. I don't do that nearly (like never) as much as I'd like to. I write and record songs and float off the floor in my spare time. I am spry, motivated, and comfortable around all kinds of people. Happy in crowds and groups--OK on my own too!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

There is a big world out there with lots of good folks looking to share in a good chat, laugh, or even a beer (or two). I've been stir crazy for a few years now looking to breech the confines of my childhood neighborhood and find some folks equally as hungry to go exploring.

兴趣

I enjoy a good dip and am accustomed to jumping in lakes of all sizes.

Books-mostly nonfiction science, psychology. . .

Traditional animation--1930s, 40s, 50s

Enjoy going to the gallery or museum to see some lauded masterpiece.

Comedy (Rik Mayall is basically an idol)

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

At 10 years old I went on an airplane to visit my friend in Colorado. This was the first time I traveled on my own. Being a pretty "nervous" kid then--I am still surprised I went through with it! I also learned what jet lag was.

教，学，和分享

Basic guitar, finger style, basic piano (chord playing), I'll do a portrait of your pet (or you!), I can do a pretty mean mouth trumpet as well.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

attentive ears, eyes, a loose-easy going attitude, gusto and readiness to learn and help out. Songs and songs and songs as well.
