About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See new places.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy a good joke, a good book and good company. My hobbies include writing, reading, dance and yoga. I am entertained by activities that vary from lazy lounging to intense athleticism. I try to adapt to my surroundings. Such is the joy of finding new people and places. I can be an allnighter int the underground. Or a mellow morning coffee lover. A mountain climber or a sunbather. A page turner or a one-liner.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't spend your life on the sofa. Well, unless it's from a couchsurfing.org perspective

Music, Movies, and Books

movies: Being John Malkovich, the Nightmare Before Christmas, Como Agua por Chocolate, The Illusionist by Sylvan Chomet, I am also not above the screwball comedy by any means. I love the movie Stepbrothers!

books: Clockwork Orange, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Running with Scissors, Happy Baby, Jesus' Sun, The Road

music: Amon Tobin, Portishead, Peaches, RJD2, Robots in Disguise, CocoRosie, Crystal Castles. Actually, music preferences are always difficult to list and doing so now might be misrepresentative of my personality on any given day. Got something new for me to hear? Try me. I enjoy dance-oriented music. And a lot of older stuff too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can wink my third eye without anyone noticing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I promise not to track my muddy shoes on your couch.

What I Can Share with Hosts

One sofa and one bathroom and several conversations. My roommates have two cats who love houseguests so cat haters will have something to frown about.

Countries I’ve Visited

Guatemala, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
