ABOUT ME
What can I say? It's impossible to answer these questions, but here goes. I like to consider myself a relatively well rounded person. I enjoy hiking, backpacking, reading, playing almost any sport, listening to music, having conversations, surfing, cooking, etc. The list really does go on and on. As a positive person, I am attracted to positivity.
PHILOSOPHY
Frankfurt School, Humanism
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Currently, I am unavailable to accommodate couchsurfers as I am boarding with a host father during my stead in Berlin, and it is not my couch to rent.
I would be more than happy to meet up for coffee or drinks, and to show you around the city, however.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I play soccer from time to time with a group organized through couchsurfing and it has always been a good time. I get to meet new people and work on my German, not to mention exercise and play a sport that I love. Other than that, I have no experience. Hoping to change that shortly!
Interests
Literature, philosophy, poetry, post-colonial history. Jazz, Folk, underground hip-hop. Art. The outdoors, going places where I can see a lot of stars, climbing trees. Playing/watching soccer. Talking, telling jokes, making fun of famous people and politicians. Being.
