Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still new here, so hoping to participate one step at a time!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only amazing things. People have opened their homes and hearts to me and I hope to repay that generostiy in the future!

Interests

Stories. Journalism. Great radio. the New York Times.

I believe our stories and our lives are worth learning about and we need to tell each other our stories. But I also believe sometimes our own perspectives, while valuable, can become overinflated when we live in our heads. we need someone to check ourselves before we wreck ourselves... the truth is enough.

Music, Movies, and Books

I used to read more but I have found it harder to read as much since getting Long Covid, which is real (if you are someone who thinks covid is a conspiracy or you are unvaccinated maybe just let's both scroll on past and ignore each other ok? )
I like listening to podcasts! If you like podcasts too tell me your favorites ... Archive 81, Within The Wires and Heavyweight are three of my favorites.

Movies...I don't have a favorite but I love movies that are from artists in the places I go! I was in Prague and saw an awesome documentary about the Prague fine arts university, that was hilarious. And I'm on a big Hungarian animation kick right now: I loved "Bubble Bath" and "Son of the White Mare."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got engaged to my boyfriend! That was awesome :)

Teach, Learn, Share

i bake a mean cookie; if you get me started, I can go on about literature for hours; I can help you match your shirt to your pants; I can teach you a way to take years off the age of your Chucks.
