About Me

I love traveling, obviously, but I'm admittedly a bit of a homebody. I love rainy days on the couch watching films or reading (I hide from the sun). I studied anthropology, but have greater interests in philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience; and I love a good conversation over some wine, beer, or whiskey.

No experience
is so surreal as to be
a human being.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: I own far too many books. I really like Wittgenstein and Pirandello.

Television: BoJack Horseman is everything.

Films: I fluctuate between futuristic dystopian films and idealistic children's films.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I somehow managed to convince my mother to allow me to wander off to Buenos Aires alone at the age of sixteen. This ended in a plethora of fabulous and intriguing stories.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a pretty good cook (or so I think). So, we could most definitely cook bunches of vegetarian fare.

I once taught a host how to flambé, though this was years ago and I would probably now burn down your house if I tried again.

Also, I love getting new music.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hugs. Lots of hugs.
