Travel while you can, that's what they say. So I will. I plan to read and write and walk in places with deep history, where the streets say as much as the people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in cultural emersion, the best way to meet people and learn about a culture is to live with the people.
I also grew up in a house where we had touring bands and homeless teens sleeping on our couches and plan to continue doing so when I can.
