About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Road trip across the U.S. (it's time to see my own country).

ABOUT ME

I have no idea what I'm going to do with my life, and I'm ok with that for the moment.

PHILOSOPHY

If I could tell you without spewing a load of cliches, I would.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I have only been able to use couchsurfing for accomodation but hopefully I can start hosting when I am in one spot for more than 6 months! Couchsurfing has allowed me to see a number of cities through the eye of a local rather than of a tourist.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Every couchsurfing experience is different in its own way, and I love that. So far I have couchsurfed in Boston, Seville, Madrid, Vienna, Bellinzona, Cortona, Lucca, Milan, and Basal.

Interests

Music (of all sorts) and taking pictures. Latin America and speaking Spanish. Music. New people. Coffee, beer, wine and good food. And trains.

Music, Movies, and Books

The XX, Youth Lagoon, The National, Laura Veirs, Arcade Fire, James Blake, Rural Alberta Advantage, Julian Casablancas, Fleet Foxes, Bon Iver, Frightened Rabbit, Fanfarlo, Jónsi, PJ Harvey. I also enjoy tango, and cheesey latina musica. Always up for foreign films although my collection of them/general knowledge is extremely limited.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The walking on a glacier in Argentina experience was pretty cool, but I'm not convinced it's the most amazing thing I will ever do. I have had some fanstastic trips around Europe this summer as well.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have found that once you travel and make friends with people in foreign countries, the world seems a lot smaller. And I like that. It makes me feel like it's possible to eventually see it all.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Brazil, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Argentina, United Kingdom, United States
