ABOUT ME

Outside at night, mountains, encyclopedias real or imaginary, wind and rain, ecstatic sound.

Little by little, I'm walking around the world.

Currently unable to host ( half-traveling myself), but happy to meet up!

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm happy to catch up with a far-flung traveler wherever I happen to be. I'm unfortunately unable to host at the moment because of my housing situation, but give a shout and let's see what other mischief we can get up to!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in Istanbul, Belgrade, Zagreb, and Paris while walking across Europe, and in several towns while walking across the American West. While living in Barcelona, I was able to hang out with and host some intrepid people from other parts of Europe and South America. I also stayed with Couchsurfers in Argentina and Chile during my walk across South America. Overall, I've met wonderful people and had a great time.

Интересы

Moving without motors, making things, surprises, singing. I like beech trees. I’ve never sat behind the steering wheel of a car, but you should see the mileage on my boots.

When I make music myself, it sounds like this: https://soundcloud.com/kailas-1

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

I'd rather do something well than do something amazing.

But it's amazing how cold water can be; how kind and cruel people can be; what the sky does before and after a storm; how the moon rises; and how a breaking wave feels when it pushes you down; and we keep going there.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

How to handle peculiar situations. I like to learn how to make things, and I like sharing time outside.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

Wild yarns, harmonies, and washing up.
