CURRENT MISSION

trying to leave my books,vinyls and penguin shaped waffle machine behind....

ABOUT ME

I am

I like wondering streets and hanging out with cats even though they make me sneeze sometimes

I entertain myself by having titbits from books I like in my normal speech which are so borderline people have no reason to suspect any self indulgence

I enjoy trying to understand things and this sometimes makes me unnecessarily cautious which can be a problem because I am interested in too much

I am not good at wearing sunglasses

PHILOSOPHY

“You have to pick the places you don't walk away from.”

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have enjoyed bumping in couch-surfers wherever I end up being. Whenever there is space I think it should be open to a bit of negotiation- always respectfully of course

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been floating alongside the couchsurfing movement for a while, often ending up at couchsurfing events without really planning it at all. I have also had quite a few people surfing in my life, for short to reasonably long time, but this has all been outside of the CS Coven. I think theres no real reason to drag my feet any longer :)

Interessi

I am a nerd and a trouble maker sometimes , though that tends to be quite part time. I like thinking about how to make things better, and like being around people that dont project too many stories on me. I listen to crazy jazz, have been known to read pynchon, but more recently was indulging in a trilogy of dame pat booth- which I found particularly educational , if completely gaudy. I am the kind of person who dreams of having a herb garden but hasn't really ever got there. I have stayed with 3 sets of 3 Pisces boys which continues to astound me . I like being around kids but am fathoms from broody. I like baking, and cooking but tend to tomatoes a little too wistfully for many peoples taste. The first food I ate was an olive and one of my absolute irreversible bourgeois leanings is the absolute joy I get when I find out that artichokes are on the menu.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

every day the sun decides to rise

Insegna, impara, condividi

Economic History and how the world works but which they fail you in school for.

I can do your tarot- only as a psycoanalysis though- I dont think divination is that empowering

How to run a retail store - which is only slightly questionable

How to organise your house or make it look homey or chic or whatever or make the angles work

How to write really long sentences

If you want a perfect cake the secret is unfortunately castor suger - there is no way around this
