Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Try to lend a helping hand to those on an adventure. I ask only for kind reciprocity.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Still relatively new to CS, but have indirectly hosted surfers who have stayed with people I have lived with.

Intereses

I love cooking. I'm definitely a foodie, obsessed with well-spiced ethnic food and little kitchen tips like how to most efficiently peel garlic. I live in a housing co-op -- and have since 2007 -- where I regularly cook meals from scratch for 15-25 people. That being said, I also enjoy communal living largely, in part, because it brings with it a refreshing breadth of new people and experiences (I've lived with train-hoppers, world-class physicists, musicians, sex+ activists, etc), along with a healthy sense of community.

I'm a big fan of photography and bring my camera everywhere I go. I have a strong interest in music (jazz, motown, world) and play bass guitar. I like taking casual bike rides around town, but do it more for transportation.

I'm quite committed to Vipassana meditation, usually practicing 1-2 hours/day.

Música, películas y libros

Books: I usually find one author I like and then proceed to read everything that person wrote. Right now it's Huruki Murakami.Music: Motown, jazz, bluegrass, World, fusion, neo-soul, etc. I have very few musical boundaries, but also have a strong preference towards virtuosic talent. I also need tunes that I can feel.Movies: Not so much :)
