About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting to know people in all corners of the world slowly, and preferably by train.

ABOUT ME

Legend has it that my first word was "airplane".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted many people and stayed with many abroad. I enjoy showing people around places that I live and visit. I tend to find the quirky, fun parts of a town that are hidden away and share them with people.

In SF, there are the giant concrete slides hidden around town, "Secret Breakfast" Ice Cream (Cornflakes and Bourbon), creme brulee carts, and some amazing views you can walk to. I look for similar things all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted many amazing people and crashed at people's houses in various countries around the world. I like seeing the world through other people's eyes almost as much as them seeing it through mine.

Interests

Late night adventures. DJing. Post-impressionism. Movies that leave you speechless for hours. Music that won't let you stop singing. Japanese. Good design. Passionate beliefs. Skydiving. Old Kurt Vonnegut novels with great artwork. Dancing in moving vehicles. Crossing several countries on a whim. Laughing until all my muscles ache. Jeet Kun Do. Muay Thai. Parkour. Knowing that I am doing things that nobody else has ever done before. Cookies.
