PHILOSOPHY

I've never met a stranger. Only strange people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

by spreading the word! a lot of people think it's dangerous, but i've never met anyone off CS that wasn't a true pleasure and a new friend. i like to tell people about the connections CS can make for people.
and by being a positive and active surfer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

we hosted a lot of surfers at a house i lived in a few years ago, that's how i was introduced to the project. i've since started hosting again at the nonsense house.

surfed in MA,VT, Montreal, Toronto. as expected, it's as much fun as hosting!

now hosting in portland or, recently surfed in northern california.

Interests

Chris: I love music: making music, listening, watching. Music to me takes any form, not limited to the conventional. I am particularly interested in electronic and experimental music and performances. i've messed around with circuit bending, and have an oddish collection of synths. i also play the organ, and accordion. helped organize a bike collective on my university campus, and visit and help at the local bike co-ops in the cities i visit. night riding in a new place is excitement to be reckoned with!
