ABOUT ME

Current student at New York University, class of 2016. Studying abroad in Paris, France for the 2012/2013 school year. Originally from Natick, Massachusetts but raised in San Diego, California. I enjoy a plethora of things, placing particular interest in the foreign, abstract, and strange. I'm self-taught. I tell good jokes, and regard the pun to be a thing of skill and artistry.

PHILOSOPHY

I think this void should only be filled in upon certainty, and I think my knack for semantics may diminish the value of its integrity. I'll come back to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to host travelers once I have a concrete living arrangement, but for now I simply spread the Couch Surfing excitement to any with their ears open.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Looking to fill this box with recounts of triumphant travels, ventures, and humans.

Interests

Learning and interpreting any and all knowledge and information! I relish in obscurities and often find myself engulfed by detail. Space and the universe, math, the circus, history, people, philosophy, collecting things, scrabble; I wonder about wonderful wonders. I continuously seek new hobbies.
