I'm a student and avid traveler, eager to broaden my experiences and explore the world around me. I hope to meet interesting people with differing perspectives along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm hoping to connect with both like and differently-minded individuals as I explore the world. I'm just as happy to have you on my couch as I am to sleep on yours!

Music, Movies, and Books

Hate choosing favorites, but here goes -
Music: The National, Dylan, Sufjan Stevens, Beck, and Gorillaz make up the bulk of my current playlist.
Movies: Give me suggestions! I guess I watch more TV than movies - The X Files, Twin Peaks, 30 Rock, It's Always Sunny...
Books: I love to read anything (except romance novels). Nabokov's "Lolita" and Steinbeck's "Travels With Charley" come to mind as current favorites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently took a six week cross-country road trip with my partner, traveling across the US to visit many of the parks and several major cities. We're getting ready to do the same type of trip this July and August, this time across Canada.

Teach me everything you can! I'm willing to learn.
