I'm a complex human girl with flaws and all that, and I like other multi-dimensional humans.

I wouldn't call myself a full-blown nerd-- like I'm not into Dungeon and Dragons, although I know what it is (and I'm trying to learn it). However, I hate the majority of the movies that start with Star-- yup, that means Star Trek and Star Wars.

However, I do have some nerdy interests which include being a lover of time traveling and quantum physics, and most sci-fi that does not involve spaceships. I'm an NPR brat, avid podcast listener, information whore, and a strong analytical thinker. I'm also a dream chaser, cocktail enthusiast, food snob, musical fan, Netflix junkie, debater/talker, traveler, feminist, writer, and I'm super progressive. While I wouldn't say that I'm "laid-back"-- I also don't take myself too seriously. There is a time for every mood, but I prefer laughing over anything. I am also super passionate and I enjoy energetic conversations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a returning CS member who did a ton of traveling and hosting via CS... however, a few years ago I closed my account after a decade of being in the community because I didn't like the direction CS was taking. I'm giving it another chance in an attempt to build a local and global community.
