ABOUT ME

I love hammocks, feta cheese, cycling, canoes, slow breakfast, road trips, the prairie, and the feel of a book in my hands. If I hadn't already chosen comparative literature, I'd study historical architecture - the shelters people choose to encase themselves in, and why they chose to build them the way they did.

fascinated by: languages, bargain shopping, politics, cat memes, architectural history, street food, B-list German television.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

currently a college student with an undersized dorm room as home base, but i'll make it all up to you someday.
until then, looking to make friends in all corners of the world, and will cook for a place on your couch!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Waking up on the Great Wall of China - fog in mountains, scorpion in my shoe.
Waking up in a canoe in the north of Ontario - utter stillness and granola in a tin cup

"waking up in aesthetically pleasing places" seems to be a theme here, but i promise you it runs deeper
