Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Hosting, surfing, whatnot.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've surfed, but yet to host (other than nonCS guests). Mostly likely because I live in bumnowhere. I once took a road trip across the US and surfed every night. It was the best! :) I met so many great people and really got in touch with the places we stayed.

Interests

Exploring, cooking, traveling, reading as much as I can, and learning languages.

  • cooking

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Tennis, Florence and the Machine, Vampire Weekend, Atomic Peace

Books - All of them! Right now I'm really into Murakami and before him I was into David Mitchell.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Falling in rapid heartbeat love with scuba diving.

Jumping into the antarctic water to prove a point.

Following my dreams to zero gravity.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you sailing (if we suddenly had a boat). I can teach you the basics of how a rocket works. And I can prepare you for scuba diving if you've never gone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories and laughter - my two specialties.
