ABOUT ME

I always thought of myself is really weird, but I'm starting to realize how normal I really am, and it depresses me a little. But I try to be interesting, at least! I love cooking, eating, sleeping, hiking, animals, new people, new cultures, and new places. I used to play piano, and occasionally pretend to play that and guitar (from a grand total of 8 lessons). People sometimes call me a "free spirit." I do not, in fact, like long walks on the beach. It hurts my feet.

PHILOSOPHY

"Why do you live your life?" I enjoy my life. I enjoy being alive. Is that not why other people live their lives?I also have a tendency to fly by the seat of my pants, but that's not really a philosophy, it's just a way for me to put off finding a "direction" in my life for a while.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

The only way I've ever participated in CouchSurfing was meeting up with some awesome people in Moscow. However, I really want to start surfing and eventually to host surfers at my place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some really cool people in Russia from Turkey, Russia, and Colombia and we ran all over town having a great time together. That's all, so far...
