About Me

I am a quiet intellectual studying Russian language and Literature. I had a couch surfing profile many years ago, but have been rather sedentary since coming back to school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Primarily to find accommodations while traveling, and to offer a place (as soon as I find one myself) in New Haven as I love house guests. I have always lived in punk houses and collective houses so I am simply accustomed to having people around and I am a great guest.

Interests

I enjoy literature, noise shows, adventure, mycology, Sovietology, film and nature.
