I know a lot about a little and a little about a lot and it gets me by pretty well. I love politics, music, friends, and so much more.

The home I share with my partner isn't yet ready for hosting couch surfers, but I am still very open to answering traveler questions about DC and even meeting up for a coffee, a drink, or a museum.

Here's some thoughts on the CS experience:

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm here to provide some info about my area. I love making new friends and have had the good fortune of being able to meet up with a few folks I've met here month or years after the fact. Couchsurfing isn't free lodging, it's a cultural exchange.

As far as my own Couchsurfer etiquette, it never hurts to wash the dishes or take out the trash. It's amazing how appreciative people are of simple gestures. I personally try to contribute something, be it food or entertainment or just help around the house when surfing.

Intereses

I love human interactions. I am always excited to experience new cultures, beliefs and ideas, even if I'm not always comfortable with them or agree with them. I love the art of (civil) debate. I love most kinds of music and art, though I'm much more familiar with some kinds than others. I love the outdoors, be it camping, hiking, swimming, boating or any combination thereof. I enjoy the nightlife, though quite a bit less frequently than I used to.

Música, películas y libros

Too much to even begin listing. Tom Robbins? Octavia Butler? Corn Brothers? Atwood? Iñaritu? Marquez? Nope, I'm not going down this road. That's what great conversations are for.

Algo increíble que he hecho

To list one would do an injustice to all the rest. There are plenty. I've been to a lot of destinations in this country and in many others and I have been lucky enough to have experienced a vast sampling of what those places have to offer. The experience as a whole means the world to me.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

The outdoors and gardening are passions that I enjoy sharing with new people. I also prefer to fix things than throw them away and love helping people learn to tinker.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can share my experiences and I will definitely share with chores!
