About Me

I'm transgender, and have a terrible personality.

I really enjoy meeting kind, sensitive people and making connections with them no matter how fleeting or reductive. It's really great sharing experiences with people that seem spontaneous and getting surprised about how meaningful connections with random people can be. Random encounters are the best. I think I'm quite a socially inept person, so I appreciate that kind of thing especially.

I like music a lot - I play guitar and waste a lot of money collecting vinyl.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I couchsurfed quite a bit and now I wanna pay it forward yada yada
