Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I introduce to local food/dive bars/music/people/hospitality/sense of humor.

I also surf when I have the chance/timing is right and money is not TOO tight. $$$.

Interests

I love nightlife, naps in the sunshine, experiencing music, cooking day and night and in between, coca-cola and gummy bears, despite otherwise being a vegan (I cannot resist, although I sometimes try for periods of time...temptation always wins), dive bars, people with a goddamn sense of humor (!), people watching, interesting/unique/vintage items and/or clothing, finding hidden "treasures", and learning more about myself.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a nerd for documentaries and romantic comedies (Singles, Reality Bites, anyone?) from the '90's.

There are too many books to name, to put it simply I like them a lot, possess far too many I have yet to read, can spend an entire day browsing a mere few aisles at the public library, and always end up finding more I want to read yet cant seem to find the time/attention span to do so.
-I adore music, I crave Neil Young, desire folk music when I am feeling calm and content, and specifically enjoy at all times: Fats Waller, Elliott Smith, Memphis Minnie, Billie Holiday, Simon & Garfunkel, The Velvet Underground and THE song Thirteen by Big Star when Im feeling blue.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hoping a train TO WHO KNEW WHERE?. spur of the moment - seeing as im terrified of heights & had to jump from one car to the next - but I DID IT. :)

Working on an organic farm - so terribly hard - but SO REWARDING

Being able to experience various aspects of many types of lifestyles in numerous cities - not all as it "appeared" to be.. that lesson will stick with me for life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a pretty damn decent cook, I make mean beet hummus and vegan fruit tarts. I enjoy playing dress up.
- I would really like to experience different cultures in general; from picking fruit, to learning how to do a flying trapeze act. Life is about experiences.
