CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

The rest of this page is a pretty good sampling of me. I've lived in Boulder, Boston, Oxford, Philadelphia (roughly). Everywhere I've been I've spent my time falling in love with too many wonderful people to count.

PHILOSOPHY

In development.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just made this profile; filling it out so I can look nice and couchsurf for the first time without creeping people out!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to Couchsurfing, but see below for a Couchsurfing-ish experience I've had. Can't wait to have more like it!

I don't have equivalent accounts for movies and books, and I'm not going to just start typing. Movies and books are cool, ya know?

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

This one time I walked in Spain for a month on El Camino de Santiago, staying in hostels of all sizes. At some of the places I would be the only person there, or maybe one out of four people. So those were incredible experiences: Reading a book all day in front of the fireplace of a wonderful Portugese woman who cooked me dinner; drinking several types of unidentified liquor supplied by Italian hostel-managers while playing harmonica to accompany a German kid playing and singing Thunder Road in a spot-on Bruce Springsteen impression; arguing with an old Spanish woman about whether it was necessary to put my clothes in the dryer. We didn't have even a shred of shared language, but she was completely right; hanging them up was fine.

教，学，和分享

If I spend enough time talking to you, you will probably get a physics demonstration at some point.
