CURRENT MISSION

To produce something that I am really proud of.

ABOUT ME

Love the outdoors, especially if it's a little cold. I like to read cookbooks. Sometimes I cook from them. I've biked across the country twice. I can stare forever at a map. I love watching angry sports fans argue. I can be a workaholic sometimes, €”but not all the time. Diet soda is great, but I need to kick the habit.

PHILOSOPHY

Give people the benefit of the doubt.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to host people in Philadelphia until I went over to Asia and traveled for a bit. I can't really host now, but always up for meeting the CS folk.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love hosting even though I can't really do it now. Lately, I've been surfing with people more often, and doing so inspired me to hitchhike in parts of Cambodia (all thanks to Javier, who everyone must meet immediately). I also slept on lots and lots of church floors across most of the US (and one temple floor in Taiwan).

Intereses

Karaoke, obviously. Also biking and running and cold winter races. I want to learn Mandarin Chinese very badly and am trying to do that right now.
