About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To give myself enough spare time to enjoy life and to improve my language skills.

ABOUT ME

I'm a non-smoking agnostic/athiest with a great interest and appreciation for the religions of the world. I keep dress shoes and tupperware under my bed. I listen to music as much as I can. I have too many t-shirts. I want to travel more and play music in different places. I love halva and shoes that are bad for my feet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've helped host CSers, friends, and acquaintances for years.

We still host people at our house but I'm becoming less and less active with Couchsurfing.org and more regularly host traveling friends and bands. Feel free to message me anyway but chances are that if I'm in Philadelphia, I'm probably working a lot :/
