CURRENT MISSION

To find peace in the universe through opening my eyes to the world

ABOUT ME

I have a degree in liberal arts from a small hippie school in New England (twenty points if you've heard of it), spent 8 months traveling around Central Europe and teaching English, spent 2 years working for Lush, and now I'm a makeup artist and wig maker based out of Wisconsin.

I am an introvert! I would love to cook with you or go out on the town, but I'm not always in the mood for huge parties.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is too big for there to be only one option for any given person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Finding people, meeting people, going places (and drinking lots of beer/eating lots of chocolate along the way). If you have a couch, I'll go, since I love seeing new communities and locations and don't really like my current place of living (not because it is a bad situation- it's just boring).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed in Copenhagen, Brussels, Zadar (Croatia) and throughout the Czech Republic. I've never hosted, but once I move somewhere where that is possible, I want to!

Kramer, Delovely, Son of Rambow, Amelie, Match Point, Adam, Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice, Daisies, Pan's Labyrinth
TV: Pretty much anything on HBO or Showtime.
