I'm a caged bird with restless wings, eager to see new places! I've got a positive outlook and a mind too caught up with the serious questions about life and the universe, I tackle them with a lighthearted smile. As Kurt Vonnegut said "We're here on Earth to fart around, don't let anybody tell you differently."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What's the point of traveling if you don't get to know the people? Getting to know somebody is just as unique an experience as getting to see a new place! Everybody's got an interesting story that I'd love to hear.

Interests

Reading! I'm always reading something, usually more than one thing at a time. My favorite topics are philosophy and mythology, Joseph Campbell being a big inspiration. I'm also very interested in religions, specifically Buddhism.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite author at the moment is the pleasantly insane Phillip K. Dick, author of the books which inspired Total Recall, Blade Runner, Minority Report, and recently The Man in the High Castle. Before him was Kurt Vonnegut, who I've read almost everything by.

Bands I'll never get tired of: MGMT, Passion Pit, Nuetral Milk Hotel, but I've got a favorite song in pretty much every genre, I'm very open minded.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This road trip will be the most satisfying thing I've ever done and I'm excited to get it started! The world is to be enjoyed and I'm ready to explore it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm very interested in learning about different cultures, and about different people in general. We've all got our own unique culture, even our neighbors have something to teach us!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've got a positive outlook and a lot of beautiful words stuck in my head to back it up! I'll share some of them with you I've you want :)
