Resumen
Sobre mí
I'm very calm and often quiet, but then occasionally I start singing 80's synthpop in a falsetto. I read a lot, mostly science fiction, and I enjoy writing also but seldom have time anymore. I get lost in thought very often, but I also like to share those thoughts in conversation.
Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
To seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go...
It would also be nice to recapture some of the international flavor that was a big part of my life for a while. I studied abroad in high school and later attended graduate school in three countries.
