ABOUT ME

I'm an easy going person who loves to explore and learn.

PHILOSOPHY

"Why do I care for a hell for oppressors? What good can hell do, since those children have already been tortured? And what becomes of harmony, if there is hell? I want to forgive. I want to embrace. I don't want more suffering. And if the sufferings of children go to swell the sum of sufferings which was necessary to pay for truth, then I protest that the truth is not worth such a price."
-Fyodor Dostoevsky, Chapter 4, Brothers Karamazov

As a human being, I strongly feel the imperative to fight oppression, even if it only produces marginal change. I often find existence disappointing, but I also deeply love humanity, friendship, and nature and will fight incessantly for the longevity of all three.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My roommate and I recently moved to a new, bigger place and we'd love to host more couchsurfers!! We're also planning to couchsurf a bit this summer.

Interessi

I love to talk about politics, but also just life. I love to learn about people and places. I enjoy taking photographs of interactions and interesting sites.
