CURRENT MISSION

meeting people in seattle. it is...very difficult.

ABOUT ME

After a year at university I decided I needed a break so I went to India for 3 months. Directly from there I went to Europe where I hitchhiked and couchsurfed all over. My love of traveling and travelers was thus secured. I finished my degree in Chicago and then moved to Seattle. Beyond that, I love books, writing and learning. I'm a punk rock vegan, that's very very important to me.

PHILOSOPHY

Never ever do something just because it's the pattern most people follow in life.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted a bit, surfed a lot. I'm always up for meet ups. If you want to see a different side of the city I call home I can show you some sweet places. And if you're a vegan or like vegan baked goods, I will bake you something.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met many couch surfers and been hosted in a few countries. Always positive.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Watched the sunset at the Taj Mahal. Saw a woman's intestines slide out of her body when she threw up mid C-section. Gross but cool as hell. Saw Roger Waters play Dark Side of the Moon in London.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can teach you how to travel for dirt cheap. Or I can turn you on to some great bands. Or I can bake for you. Beyond that I am useless.

I want to learn anything you want to teach. Especially language and history.
