Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm new to couch surfing via the internet. Have done it in the past but always with friends of friends.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like film---especially experimental film, like the early ones made by European surrealists, but also more recent ones like Tarkovsky (Mirror). I play keyboards for my own enjoyment: Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Bartok, etc. I tend to read serious subjects: critical theory or science but really liked the Harry Potter books.
Teach, Learn, Share
Actually, I love teaching. Taught art and digital media at college level for several years. I also teach at BAVC here in SF, when time allows.
