Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Serendipitously, the universe aligned me and a famous poet in the same pub almost a year ago. That pub hosted an open mic night where I performed some poetry. When I got off stage the famous poet took me aside. He asked me if I wanted to study under him at the second oldest university in Europe. The only answer was yes so here I am. I am a college student and proud artist so money is always tight. That being said, couch surfing is the ideal way for me until I arrive at Charles University in Prague. Plus meeting humans is wonderful (:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I hiked the Cliffs of Moher and self-published a collection of poetry in Ireland.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer hosts personlized poems. I carry a typewriter with me wherever I go and write poems for people. They pay whatever they think the poem is worth. In this case I'd write the host a poem for simply being a host (no money involved). I can also cook fairly well and clean if help is needed. I can be a wonderful listening ear and creative sounding board as well.
