ABOUT ME

Here is a bit from a friend who was recently "advertising" for me on Facebook when I asked if he knew anyone in the destination of my next adventure: "I have a good friend who is traveling to Munich next week and, being broke, is looking for a couch (on which to sleep for a few nights). She's an excellent artist, very rad, and would surely buy food/beer/be a lot of fun."

All those things are true! I love eating and traveling and meeting those who like to eat and travel! I am a curious person who laughs at anything and eats everything. I have a twin and shared a room with her my entire life so I can do close quarters. I am flexible and outgoing and happy and clean and love meeting warm people who want to share their lives and thoughts.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Interests

right now I am researching contemporary jewelry and how it meets fine art culture... so I guess I would say anything you can think of that may (or may not!) fit into that scenario. Some simpler things always able to get me the most excited are as follows: pork, pizza, pork on a pizza, cheese, anchovies, riding my bike, fried things, guts, gold, geometric shapes, tall ceilings, church interiors.... where to stop

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

in 2011 I went to Soverato in Calabria with my previous roommate for Christmas. The kindness of her family was overwhelming and I got to listen to the waves of the Ionian sea crashing as I fell asleep.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a few different versions of patty-cake !
I can talk to you all day about the power of jewelry as an expressive form of art! Or if you have a torch, I can teach you to solder! Or beat a piece of metal oh so tenderly so it stretches for miles!
and I want to learn more about how nothing is actually something!
and of course I want to learn about local food culture and how to eat cheap but well in whatever city i'm in!
