Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

In 2012, I got a grant to travel to the Czech Republic and conduct interviews with international travelers about feelings of national identity as well as general opinions of the U.S., especially since 9/11 (I wrote my dissertation on war on terror discourse). The institutional red tape wouldn't let me couchsurf, but I continually met awesome hosts throughout my travels and knew it was a community I'd like to be a part of. Now, after a few years of hermitting up with a dissertation and living with a partner who was not so keen on the idea of strangers, I'm ready to meet some folk.

Intereses

Algo increíble que he hecho

Um.. drove to Oklahoma City to watch the Flaming Lips play Dark Side of the Moon on New Years...

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I'm a sociologist. A feminist. ENFP. ADD... What I'm saying here, is that I'm all over the place, and I love having intelligent conversations about damn near anything...

OH! and you could have your own private showing of the presentation I'm in town for: "Curses in Cursive: Contradictions in the Scholarly Representation of Rap Music"! (optional, I promise)
