Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted a number of people in Utah. I plan on hosting in my tiny studio 15 minutes from NYC.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Awesome. Everyone has been kind and wonderful.

Interests

I like talking to people, learning new and random facts, junk television shows, being by water, reading, and writing. I'm working on a novel.

  • writing
  • books
  • reading

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all types of music. As far as books are concerned I like the classics best, but will read a Sookie Stackhouse novel at the drop of a hat. For movies I love foreign and indie films.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It is hard to choose one! Here are a few, the Aletsch Glacier, the Hagia Sofia, and seeing mountain gorillas in Rwanda.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've had a really random life.
