CURRENT MISSION

To see as many beautiful things as I can before I go blind, and to create as many beautiful images as I can before the world goes blind.

ABOUT ME

Energetic, warm, passionate, very interested in eating pizza at any given moment. I have had the privilege of living in many different countries throughout my life (France, India, Myanmar, Vietnam, Brazil, USA, going to Prague to study film soon), and cannot imaging seeing the same saggy couch over and over again. I believe in helping others as often as possible, so no one can refuse you in your time of need.

PHILOSOPHY

Who the fuck knows

Probably the same personal philosophy as Eddie Izzard; he's my hero.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I'm out of a place to stay for the whole winter, so I'm just looking for couches at the moment!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None at all! I hope to make this a lasting practice, because it's a wonderful idea. If I ever settle into a place instead of wandering ceaselessly, I'll definitely offer a couch to anyone who needs it.

Interests

I'm a film major, so I love talking about and watching movies. I love watching people and giving them a reason to watch me. Also interested in researching the occult and esotericism. Then all the normal things like reading, writing, playing guitar, jumping off heights into water etc etc

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hurtled down a waterfall/rock slide towards waiting alligators... accidentally of course.
Fished for piranha in Brazil
Seen the sunbeams dazzled by the marble of the Taj Mahal

I actually feel like I'm desensitized towards how amazing things are... I enjoy things and promptly forget about them. Yeah that's a good life philosophy. It keeps you hungry for more.
