ABOUT ME

I'm someone who values kindness over most things. I am pretty much nice to everyone. I'm a professional Sideshow Performer, so I tend to move around a lot. I'm an avid feminist. I'm a big day dreamer. Queer. Adorable. I love making people laugh, and I am the kind of person who would sit with a crying stranger and listen to all of their problems.

PHILOSOPHY

"There's only one rule that I know of, babies—God damn it, you've got to be kind." - Kurt Vonnegut

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined, and I am looking to travel. I wish I had known about this website when I lived in Austin, as I kept my couch and spare bedroom open at all times for bike touring folk and band touring folk.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I just joined the sight, but I've had some great times traveling the country and surfing couches and meeting people. I've made some lasting friendships traveling around.

Interests

I enjoy camping and kayaking, and can usually be found riding my bike around and grinning like a maniac. I enjoy baking and cooking. I like picnics. I am a terrible knitter, but I try anyways. I live for sunny days and swimming and soaking up what I can of a beautiful day.

Music, Movies, and Books

"Les Chants de Maldoror" by Le Compte de Lautraumont
"The Story of the Eye" by Georges Bataille
Anything by bell hooks.

Anything Audrey Hepburn ever graced. I love the classics. Horror. Dario Argento. I love documentaries and I really love things that can make me laugh. Wes Anderson is a genius. David Lynch is clearly a demi god.

I don't watch much TV, but I do spend a lot of time on Netflix watching Snuff Box, Supernatural, Glee (don't judge me), Blacks Books, Twin Peaks, The X-Files, SVU, and other such nerd gems. I also really love NMTB, and The Mighty Boosh. I'm finally getting into Doctor Who.

Turbonegro, Murder By Death, Murder City Devils, the Dwarves, The Sonics, Iggy Pop, The Mountain Goats, Leslie Hall (deal with it), Voxtrot,Tallest Man On Earth, The Queers, Black Flag, Devo, the B52's, Squeeze, Eddie and the Hotrods, The Strange Boys, Peelander Z, Nobunny, Personal and the Pizzas, The Animals, Vanilla Muffins, Against Me!, Andrew Bird, Glassjaw, Discharge, Vorvadoss, (I'm all over the place, lets trade playlists)
