ABOUT ME

I'm a college student, which means bouncing between optimism and cynicism and struggling to figure out what the term "real world" means and if it applies to me. I spend my summers and winters teaching teachers in Haiti. I spend my spare time reading and writing, mostly fantasy at the moment but it used to be sci-fi and realistic fiction.

PHILOSOPHY

The ultimate enemy is boredom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to get the chance to meet new and different kinds of people - either by staying in their home or inviting them to mine.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's nice to know that the world is full of welcoming people.

Interests

I'm studying linguistics in school. Writing is extremely important to me: songs, poems, stories, and journals are how I process everything that I'm going through. Another thing that keeps me sane is running every day.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh man, choosing is hard.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm working on a screenplay about a girl who can shoot fire out of her hands right now.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love languages - teaching you mine or learning yours. I'm also really into writing...if you've got your own stories, poems, or songs you're working on, I'd love to hear them. Personally, if you're a good cook or musician, and you're patient about passing on your skills, I'd really enjoy learning from you.
