ABOUT ME

Grew up in the Americas, went to school in Boston, the studied Classics/Late Antiquity at Oxford, worked in a cafe/lived in Seattle last summer. Moved to Budapest to do graduate school in Medieval Studies. Above all I love travelling, and meeting the great people who live in cool places. I am a ridiculous nerd/geek who is in love with the Ancient World. Love talking about (but definitely not limited to) history, philosophy, art, theology, literature, and food.

PHILOSOPHY

In Making Decisions: Do what makes for a better story.
Life philosophy: Everyday is a sort of adventure, if you know where to look and keep a right perspective in your surroundings.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have travelled a lot throughout Europe, North America and the Middle East, using Couchsurfing. It has been a great way to share in travels with others, and I hope to be able to host other people and share and help them along in their travels. I love exchanging stories, and giving hospitality to people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted by some of the most amazing people, and now that I have my own place I'm more than happy to show people around, etc.
