CURRENT MISSION Eat as much hummus as possible, before it all goes south ABOUT ME I'm a student midwife. I live with my husband and our cat Amelia. We live (for now) in Astoria, a suburb of New York City, but who knows where we'll go next! Edit: now we live in Buford. Go figure. I like noodles, good beer and Ikea. I dislike oxford commas, ethnocentrism and wedding planning. PHILOSOPHY Praise the dawning-- I've got a restless feeling by my side.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I'm always wiling to meetup, and sometimes we have a couch people can sleep on. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE We had an AMAZING guest last fall-- can't wait to give it a try ourselves!
Music, Movies, and Books
According to Netflix, I watch a lot of Grey's Anatomy, but I promise that's not really a good mark of character. Here are some of our favorite shows: Sherlock, Doctor Who and How I Met Your Mother. We're watching Parenthood right now. The last few movies that we've watched: Love Actually, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, and tonight, the Hobbit! As for reading, I'm reading a book on the development of knitwear through the 20th century and Ben is reading the Bourne Trilogy. We just finished reading Ender's Game aloud.
One Amazing Thing I've Done

Teach, Learn, Share
I knit, crochet, sew and cook quite well; Ben is a master Ikea- furniture assembler and technical know-how guy. Things about which we kick butt: making weird lists with terrible grammar, elements, movies, herbs, pizza toppings, brief and specific periods of history, German vocabulary, history of Apple.
