CURRENT MISSION

Working the Revolution!

ABOUT ME

I'm a major in Russian History in New Mexico, the daughter of a historian and part of a family that considers history to be a generally important things. My life is spent reading, creating and chilling with my parrot, a six year old cockatiel named Judah who makes my life difficult and joyful, often at the same time.

PHILOSOPHY

"Live as if you were to die tomorrow, learn as if you were to live forever."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

To be entirely honest, I haven't had any!

Interests

I love reading! Everything from Norm Ornstein to Neil Gaiman and things in between. If it's interesting, I'll read it. Activism as well, though that's vague; I tend to be active in free-speech issues and human rights, particularly in relation to North Korea.

Music, Movies, and Books

There are too many to list! My libraries are huge in all respects, and if I like it, genre and artist don't matter.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing is simple: The times when I have watched my parrot and been able to almost SEE his brain working, figuring out a complex problem and stomping on the idea that humans are the only intelligent creatures!

Teach, Learn, Share

There are things to be learned from everyone.
