CURRENT MISSION

To find the rhythm that suits me best...

ABOUT ME

I'm a huge nerd and language is probably my main passion. I usually end where I begin and begin where I end. I like to read and talk to people who have something to say. I tend to float around--geographically, and in most other ways. I love quiet places, but need chaos to get my gears turning. Meeting new people is always a treat and I love to show off things, places, ideas, etc. that I love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My couch is always open (except when it's occupied).
