I love: good conversations, meeting new people openly, playing music, reading good books, long mornings, being outside, going on long runs in cities and getting soaked in rainstorms, museum wandering, dogs, walking around and looking at people's gardens, being in mountains in rivers and at the beach. I'm a teacher, and I love writing fiction...I just finished a draft of my first novel.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

...because I want to meet new people and dig into It, wherever I am.

Interessen

In addition to what's mentioned above, and in no particular order, I love: swimming in odd municipal pools, swimming in waterholes, jumping off of tall things into water, rock climbing, going to libraries and staying there for the entire day, sitting in warm places and drinking beer, talking, bike rides, watching Cowboys and Aliens (my god, what a yarn!), watching anything by the Coen Brothers, meeting people, meeting dogs, writing short stories.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Conversation and learning about one another is the general and most precious one, but: I can also teach you basic acro-yoga, which, in addition to being hilarious, is great for your back. And, if you've got a park nearby, I can teach you how to throw a frisbee really far.
