Perché sono su Couchsurfing
I joined CS before travelling around Iran in the spring of 2013. The hospitality was so warm and generous and I made a number of great friends. I tried to return the favour as a host when I moved to Chicago. I haven't used CS since before Covid but I look forward to rediscovering the community in 2025.
Musica, film e libri
Movies: things I've loved range from Star Wars to Tarantino to Haneke Music: I lean toward folk and indie as well as classical but with a broad range. Favourites include The Mountain Goats, the Beach Boys, Elliott Smith, and Glenn Gould playing Bach Books: Shakespeare, Wittgenstein, Nietzsche, Chekhov, Dostoevsky... gosh, that sounds very pretentious, but really, I'm not super serious.
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
I went skinny dipping in the Arctic Ocean.
Insegna, Impara, Condividi
I teach philosophy for a living, but I'm also happy to talk about it for free. I'm also very interested in theatre and know a bit about acting and play writing. I like cooking, but I'm not the first person you should try to learn from. I speak decent French and German, a bit of Russian, and I'm learning Turkish.
Cosa posso offrire agli host
Good conversation, curiosity, and help with tasks around the home
I miei interessi
I love nature and I love culture. Nature-wise, I'm an avid hiker and love seeing stunning landscapes away from roads. Culture-wise, I'm an active reader with a love for theatre and generally enjoy discovering local cultural events, from live music to unique events.
