Hi, I'm Miranda, and I'm currently a Philosophy student in Massachusetts :) I love good, in-depth conversation. I think about things deeply but also know how to have casual chats with hosts who prefer more light conversations. I'm a natural extrovert and don't get exhausted by human interaction easily. (And when I do, I speak my truth :) ). I enjoy comparing cultures in order to learn more about my own experience in life so far and about the experiences of people I'm chatting with. humans r cool!!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel. I like meeting people. I like talking about cultures, philosophy, third way feminism, second wave feminism, fruit, vulnerability, contact improv, ecstatic dance. Gosh now I feel like I'm making another OkCupid profile, LOL.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was four, I led my friend Brian (and myself) across the street all by myself because the camp counselors had forgotten us on the playground.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love conversations, and also know when to respect people's desire for space. I think this is important because people tend to be afraid to speak their truth, which leads to things like awkwardness, passive aggressiveness, built up tension in the body, and more. Instead, I like to practice authentic, clear communication in which I respect my own desire for good conversation or for space, depending on how I'm feeling, and I like people who also know how to respect their own truths and who communicate their truths with good communication. I am a natural extrovert and I think I'm good company, yet I know how to keep to myself for those who need space. :)
