ABOUT ME

I like adventures.

PHILOSOPHY

People are people

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have not yet had the freedom of offering a place for people to stay because I've been living under other peoples' roofs for the past few years, but I am always up for a cup of coffee or showing someone around where I live. I have couch surfed the official way (using this wonderful website) only a few times, but unofficially couch surfed countless times during road trips and weekend visits with friends and friends of friends.

I look forward to the day when I have my own place in an awesome city and can host people from all over the world!

Music, Movies, and Books

Yes please.

I'm not specific, but I can be picky. It would be quite a random list if I were to take the time to list all the movies, music and books that I enjoy, and I was never really good at choosing favorites.

currently reading: Franny & Zooey and Three Cups of Tea
currently listening to: St. Vincent, Sigur Rós (always), Lykke Li, Bon Iver
recently watched: Arrested development, Amelie, The life of Pi, The art of getting by, Fantastic Mr. Fox
