Easy going, curious, funny, blah blah. Among the more awesome people to have walked this planet since we evolved from apes. And since I don't take myself seriously, I don't expect you to do that either. But seriously, I am totally awesome.

If you are still reading, I like writing, travel (obviously), the outdoors and adventure, 60s-early 90s rock music, anime, video games, different cultures (I have a degree in anthropology), and space.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people is always fun. And since I plan to travel (eventually) to all the countries in the world, joining this site makes that more possible and more interesting!

Happy to host people or at least meet them when I can.

Interests

I write short stories, poetry, and also finished writing a science fiction book (not published).

I also write non-fiction for work, since I am a journalist.

Music, Movies, and Books

Way too many to mention here, better discussed in-person.

Kurt Vonnegut, Joseph Heller, Mikhail Bulgakov were some excellent writers. Led Zeppelin and INXS were both great bands.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bonded with some Gypsies in the middle of the Carpathians over a fantastic conversation about their roots.
