Présentation
À propos de moi
CURRENT MISSION
Have a little time before I start graduate school and I'd like to see a little more of the US.
ABOUT ME
Not really sure what I'd include here that isn't included somewhere else. I graduated from Oberlin College in 2009 with a degree in English and creative writing. I come from a very large family, so I grew up in a loud house. I have a quiet voice, so I got used to listening, and that's served me well. I get along with most anyone, although I like some time to myself as well. In the past few years I've gone from being a night person to a morning person, probably as a result of working as a farmer/gardener for a few summers. I recently returned from teaching English in Ecuador and Chile for nine months.
PHILOSOPHY
Listening is usually better than talking. Seeing is usually better than showing.
Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
For now I don't really have a couch for others to surf on, but I'll be traveling around the country a bit in the next few months and seeing some new places, and I'd like to meet some cool people. When I have a couch, it will be open for surfing.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've happily surfed in Chicago, Minneapolis, Alabama, and Mississippi.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres
Probably too many to list. To simplify, my favorite album is Joni Mitchell's Blue, my favorite book is Elizabeth Bishop's Collected Poems, and my favorite movie is Best in Show.
Enseignez, apprenez, partagez
I have a lot of music to share, and am always willing to teach someone to play an instrument (as long as it's one I've played). I'm also happy to share what I know about cooking, and about the places I've traveled. I can teach English or Spanish.
