About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be an object in motion that stays in motion.

ABOUT ME

I'm finally 21, just got back from a year abroad in Italia (mi manchi, Italia... Campioni del Mondo!!). I love Europeans and most nice people. I plan to travel for the rest of my life and see all that I can see. I'm pretty satisfied with life and all that good stuff. I am the Walrus, goo goo g'joob.

PHILOSOPHY

Let's see... I like to fight my impulse to overthink - not always successfully - and try to live life in the moment. I am obsessed with the feeling you get when a situation is so powerful that you forget yourself... and time stops. I like to think outside the box and try not to be judgmental. I don't always make sense, am not really consistent, and prefer not to be. I don't like constructs, but recognize them as vital.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My roommate in LA turned me on to it, and I'm pretty bummed that I didn't know about it when I was in Europe. I am currently hosting people at my place in Westwood and I plan to hit some people up when I get back into Europe... which needs to be soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had two different couch surfers at my place... an Austrian guy and girl, and the other was a German guy. All of them were awesome people and it was cool to hang out with them and kinda rediscover LA. There's more here than I knew to look for. So, yeah... no awesome CouchSurfing stories yet, but all were successful and fun.

Interests

Hmm.. I like to party. I like good Indie music. I'm a fan of theatre. I like to talk. I like to learn languages. I am addicted to fun. I am interested in people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw the Palio in Siena, Italy after having lived there for 3 and a half months... if you know what it is you know what I am talking about... there is nothing like it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I dunno... I guess I come from a place that is stereotypically closed-minded and find myself constantly fighting that image and the bubble mentality. So, I can offer you some insight on that whole thing, but otherwise I'm just here to take it all in.
