ABOUT ME

I'm not certain of how to summarize myself. It's a hard thing to do in a text box online. I know that make pleasant enough company, but I tend to prefer to let other people draw their own conclusions about me. Perhaps that's not the best thing to attract attention on Couch Surfing, but I've met good people through the site, all the same.

I'm always eager to engage in conversation, but I'm not exactly boisterously extroverted. I'm pensive but optimistic, motivated but directionless. All I've ever wanted to do is travel and write, but there's been little such opportunity, so I like to get all the experience that I can when I can.

PHILOSOPHY

With a degree in it from the top-rated philosophy department in the Western world, you'd think I'd have this pinned down, huh?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just in the usual ways - hosting when I'm needed, and surfing when I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed a few couches in Seattle and in Oklahoma, and I've hosted a handful of people here in Buffalo.

Interests

They are various and broad-ranging. But I am particularly interested in everything that is or seems out of my reach.

• traveling
• drawing
• surfing
• boxing

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't read enough these days, but there are a few books about which I feel as if they were written especially for me, and for the time in which I read them.

I like films that I can analyze almost to excess after I've watched them, even if they're probably not intended for that purpose.

I like to listen to all many of music, and I enjoy dancing at length in my living room.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nothing, aside from what is amazing in ordinary ways.
