Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a Minneapolis / Saint Paul local that can help you blend in and feel comfortable navigating around MSP, even if you're taking pictures and looking like a tourist. When I travel, I enjoy meeting locals that can help me feel like one of them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I enjoyed the Minneapolis / Saint Paul Couchfest in 2013, and helped plan the 2016 one; I'm hoping to add other experiences soon.

Interests

I love looking at things, doing activities, and eating foods that I don't have an opportunity to enjoy every day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Celebrating the new millennium twice.

Teach, Learn, Share

Like the best teachers I've seen, I consider myself to be a student first, and a fellow explorer second. Yes, I've taught people various subjects before, but I'm more interested in sharing and exchanging knowledge than I am in seeking status or maintaining roles. Ultimately, I'm excited to learn something new, whether it comes from a novice or an experienced professional.

Topics that I enjoy performing or discussing include: Martial Arts, Dancing, Technology, Science, Religion

What I Can Share with Hosts

People seem to like my cheesecakes. My scotch eggs tempt my Jewish friends into breaking kosher laws.

Countries I’ve Visited
