Perché sono su Couchsurfing
Surfing, hosting, meetups, local advice. All the things. I can't see any other way of traveling other than staying with a local. Anytime I have to stay in a Hostel/Hotel, I feel like I'm being grounded.

Post punk/new wave, Joy Division/New Order, Radiohead, The Talking Heads, Wu-tang clan, Vince Staples, Sigur Ros, Bowie, Stan Rogers Sean Baker, Ken Loach, Costa-Gavras, Spike Jonze, Michel Gondry, Charlie Kaufman, Criterion Channel Kafka, Catch 22, The Conquest of Bread, Wilfred Owen, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
Cured the common cold
Insegna, Impara, Condividi
I can teach about organizing, power mapping, running a campaign, first aid. I want to learn more about all of those things. I like discovering new music and sharing it. I took four years of Spanish in high school but am far from fluent, I'd like to change that. I'm pretty good at making terrible puns.
Cosa posso offrire agli host
I'm more than happy to help out a host with just about anything. I'm pretty appreciative whenever someone has me as a guest, and don't like feeling like a burden. I hauled a massive pile of rocks out of one of my host's garden until I dropped one on my foot, taking me out of commission. On that note, I really don't want to move any more boulders, but I will if you ask lol. Whether you like it or not I will most likely share with you lots of bad puns as I think of them (which is often).
I miei interessi
Live music, coffee, film, photography, bicycles, the great outdoors, running, diving, art history, art deco, art garfunkle, post-punk, post-rock, postal service, new order, new wave, New Zealand folk comedy duos, inside jokes. From each according to their ability, to each according to their need. Always anti-fascist. Free Palestine. Protect trans kids. You don't have to align with me on everything for us to get along, but if any of these phrases make you uneasy, we will probably not have a good time together.
