About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Complete research in poverty related issues to help those in disparity by philosophical review (sounds more pretentious than what I actually do).

ABOUT ME

I'm a college dropout (left my Phd philosophy program). This had been a goal of mine for a long time, I like school. Ten years ago I use to really enjoy dancing at 80s dance parties. I enjoy indie music, and growing up in Austin, TX really influenced that part of my life. I enjoy traveling. While in school I traveled for conferences, now I just travel for fun. I have studied Spanish formally and informally, I picked up some German in college and hope to learn even more.

Libraries and Art museums.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I earned my degree in philosophy, with a minor in Spanish (I think they hand those out like candy at my school) from a small liberal arts school in Austin, TX. I was attending a school in Kansas for my Phd. If you knew me you would understand why I wanted this to happen. I have bad taste in movies.

My effort to build the CS Project share my knowledge I've gained over the years.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have slept on my friend's in Austin couch quite a bit during undergrad. In addition, I have stayed with individuals in Ottawa and in LA. I haven't had a bad experience yet.

a) Metamorphosis, by Franz Kafka, Works of love by Kierkegaard
