About Me

I studied philosophy and literature for my undergrad, I'm now applying for grad school to study sexology and sexual therapy. I'm pretty easy going, pretty bookwormish, pretty funny, and sufficiently quirky.

I like food and food likes me. It is safe to say this is one of my longest lasting and happiest relationships.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am more often than not looking for a place rather than hosting- I used to travel a lot in the last few years. However, I'm really looking forward to meeting people who come to town and wanna hang out!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Over the last two years, I did a lot of couchsurfing with one of my friends through many European countries during our winter breaks. It has been a really fun experience and the people I've met through my trips have been fantastic and I cannot fathom any other way to have met them. I only recently opened an account so I could "pay it forward" in a sense, now that I have a more permanent home here for a few years, I feel like I can give back to the world.

Interests

Literature, writing, photography, cooking, watching movies and then breaking them down in casual conversation, walking, observing people in their "natural habitat"- studying people, and playing UNO, deliberating whether google maps is telling the truth or whether I'm just terrible at reading maps

Music, Movies, and Books

This is toughy...I'm a very big fan of all these things.
As far as books go, my ultimately favorite novel is The Picture of Dorian Gray. And with movies, I have seen many things which I have loved and/or hated. But my top 5 all-time favorite movies for the rainy days and for my soul to stay at ease are (in order of love and appreciation): The Fifth Element, Almost Famous, Ten Things I Hate About You, Big Fish, and Mr. Nobody.
With the whole music scene, I vary a lot depending on my mood. But I am very much into indie rock, jazz and classical music. Some of my favorite bands are Flap!, Bright Eyes, and Trespassers William.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sell dildos for a living- I feel that making sex better for everyone is the most amazing thing I've ever done!

Teach, Learn, Share

I really enjoy all these things, yes.
