About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had the warmest welcome to couchsurfing possible when I visited Austin, Texas and stayed with a very rad host. I really believe that couchsurfing is the best way to travel and to meet great people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've met a telepathic fish.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a bio-nerd and love facts about life. I can tell you about the cells that make things happen when the scrape on your knee heals (go platlets!) or why the sky is blue. I can also teach you how to count to ten in Luganda, the secret to stopping hiccups, how to knit, sew, swim, ride a bicycle and make pad thai.

I'm looking to practice Portuguese while living in Brazil.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a good cook and full of jokes that are so bad (that I think) they're good
