About Me

MISSION
Saving up to buy a house, which will fulfill my desire to host some couchsurfers!

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have couchsurfed once, and had a magnificent time! I'm hoping to couchsurf anywhere I stay, as it makes traveling more interesting and more accessible.

MY PHILOSOPHY
I find every person fascinating as we are all so different. I am an Existentialist (which I choose over Nihilism), so I don't judge people over silly things. As long as you're living for you and you're trying your best not to hurt anyone, then you're good in my book.

ME: THE PERSON
I am a filmmaker with multiple creative interests that include paper crafts, knitting, and music. I love to play boardgames, watch movies, and converse about philosophy, politics, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love a good excuse to make new friends!

A friend of mine brought me on a trip during which we couchsurfed. I had a blast and I look forward to doing it again!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all sorts of music! I like most alternative and classic rock, but I am not big on country music, rap/hiphop, or pop music.
I use Spotify, so the list of things I listen to is incredibly long, but here is a foundation of sorts:
Current fave artists: Widowspeak, Still Corners, Warpaint, K.Flay
Will always love: Franz Ferdinand, The Libertines, Aqualung, Metric, (old) Coldplay

I love documentaries. Two of my favorite fiction films are Henry Fool and V for Vendetta. I love films, but I'm not a big fan of action movies and big Hollywood blockbusters.

I read a lot of fiction novels. I have a complete list of books I've read in the last three years here: literaryquotations.tumblr.com

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once worked for Al Jazeera America in their news tech room.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach a variety of crafts and basic filmmaking.

I love to learn and am open to learning all sorts of things!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a lot of energy to share with hosts. I love to dance and hang out. I like to sing and know the words and melodies to a LOT of songs.

I am great at cleaning and organizing, so I am happy to help with those things.

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Portugal

Countries I’ve Lived In
