ABOUT ME

I grew up in the states and have traveled a good bit. I'm an open-minded liberal sort of person. I teach English and help plan activities for an inter-confessional University student center. I love my job. I enjoy fine wine and good steak. I am often told that I am not like a typical American, so there's that.

PHILOSOPHY

Love God. Love others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I lived with a few Ukrainians last year and we hosted between 1-20 couch surfers a week. I've hosted a lot and traveled a little. Hoping to travel a bit more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We hosted 17 couch surfers one night in my old apartment. They have almost all been very pleasant people. I love visiting people whom I have hosted.

Interests

I enjoy Russian literature, interesting music, cooking, theology, and connecting with interesting people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy a good scary movie now and then.

I like movies that make me laugh and feel good inside.

I love Dostoevsky and Pavlo Tychyna is a new favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent last winter in Mongolia and had to walk through the remains of the old royal palace to get to the center where I volunteered. It was a great walk to work!
