CURRENT MISSION

Meeting cool new people, having adventures, seeing what places are *really* like, staying somewhere on the cheap.

ABOUT ME

I'm very even keeled. I get very excited over ideas and experiences and I enjoy wry laughs. I love exploring and thinking.

I'm a little goofy and arch.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a skeptical empiricist who believes in working hard to experience as much as possible. I'm a liberal, progressive, sex positive feminist who believes in taking yourself seriously without being dogmatic, ideological, or self righteous.

Fun is important.

I do my best to treat others well and be pleasant company.
