Hello, I'm an American living in Europe. I've been travelling and trying to learn new languages for a while now. I like unserious conversation and serious literature. I like going on walks and being outside as much as possible. I prefer talking about life to talking about politics.

I've spent the past 5 months in Prague, trying to learn Czech. It hasn't really gone all that well, but it was a fun experience. I was also studying mathematical logic for the past couple of years here in Prague, and in Amsterdam.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to to find locals to stay with when I'm travelling OR just to hang out with.

Interests

I'm really into literature, although my tastes are fairly narrow. I can pretty much only read fiction, and even then, only stuff that's been written from about 1920 on.
