CURRENT MISSION

To find out what it is I'm fighting for.

ABOUT ME

After a year and a half of trekking around the US, I finally settled in Minneapolis, MN. It's pretty great. Traveling is awesome, though. I love the United States of America, pickup trucks and coffee.

PHILOSOPHY

Pragmatic idealism. Compassionate criticism.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After Couchsurfing (officially and unofficially) for several years, I figured its time to give back to the community - so come crash on my couch!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I crashed on this chick's couch in Oxford for a night. It was awesome. Good times. I also stayed with some cool folks in Memphis and their dog ate my hairbrush.

Interests

I like books and newspapers and magazines. They're my favorites.

I'm into public education, languages, trees, horticulture, and tennis. I like talking about cities, and travel, and people. I like talking.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Make Way For Ducklings. If On A Winter's Night a Traveler. A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again.

Movies: Almost Famous. À Nos Amours.

Music: Shitty pop music. Underground hip-hop. Sad country songs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, I got to pet a baby buffalo. It was unbelievably AWESOME. They are surprisingly soft and fluffy. And so so so so cute!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you French, English, Spanish, or Portuguese. I also know a thing or two about horticulture. I would love to learn how to make the perfect pie crust and fix my own bike.
