CURRENT MISSION

Live my life without over-analyzing it, have adventures and surround myself with wonderful amazing people while I'm doing it.

ABOUT ME

I'm happiest when I'm traveling and learning about the world. I love to laugh and love being energetic and silly. I love getting around by bike. I love theaters, just being in them makes me happy. I like photography and have built two darkrooms in former houses. I believe passionately in the necessity of art and in artâ

PHILOSOPHY

Balance is the key to everything. If you eat steak and ice cream for dinner one night you gotta eat your vegetables the next.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I CouchSurfed while traveling through South America for 5 months. It was an amazing experience and made my trip a much richer experience than it would have been if I had just stayed in hostels or hotels the entire time. I met wonderful people and am looking forward to continue to use CouchSurfing in the future.

音乐、电影和书籍

I'm totally a sucker for animated movies and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I love Wall-E and Up! My favorite non-animated film is probably Children of Men. I enjoy discovering off-beat, not well known films, especially foreign films.

Dolly Parton's 9-5 is my theme song. Beyond that I've very eclectic in my music tastes. I like music with odd instruments, like the accordion. I listen to a lot of music like Amy Winehouse or Regina Spektor. But I'm open to anything. Play me something, I'll try anything.

Books: too many to list.

教，学，和分享

I can teach you how to knit, some simple sewing skills, or how to use a darkroom. I can teach you a few words of Italian or how to play a chord on an accordion. I can help with cooking. I would love to teach you how to play backgammon, as I'm a little bit addicted to the game.

I really want to learn more Spanish. I love learning anything really.
