About Me

Curious about people and their places. Love to learn from different perspectives.

I used to work, save money and travel (started before couchsurfing, workaway, the internet existed). Now I'm studying and learning to look at communities from different perspectives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Enjoy sharing a bit of daily life and life experiences with people who might have very different life experiences or perspectives and are just as curious to meet and learn from other people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: varies, love to go on 'musical tours' with friends; playing songs for each other.
Movies: I like documentaries such as Genghis Blues about Paul Pena and Tuva or Where the Green Ants Dream (Australia)
Books: Love Kurt Vonnegut, but there are so many gems and I don't take enough time to read for pleasure. Someone surprised me with Deathless, by Catherynne M. Valente.
