HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING if i had my own place, i'd let people crash, but it's my boyfriend's place, so i'm at his mercy. i'm more than happy to give people tip & tricks about the places i've lived: New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Memphie, Austin. I'll happily show couch surfers around Memphis, for what i'ts worth. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE i've couchsurfed in europe and in NYC and LA. some of the most wonerful people i've met have been those that have shown me hospitality. in college, i opened my couch to travelling friends, friends-of-friends, and bands.

i am more about books lately than music. i worked at my college radio station for a few years and got really into indie and experimental music. i like bands like: tortise, mice parade, why?, xiu xiu, we ragazzi, simian, beat happening, asobi seksu, the black keys and abuncha other stuff i don't feel like listing. books i like: Goodbye Goodness by Sam Brumbaugh, Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden, A Massive Swelling by Cintra Wilson and stuff by Chuck Klosterman and David Sedaris just to name a few. Magazines? Yes, please!!: I read TOKION, I-D, Nylon, W, Vogue, French Vogue, Vogue Nippon, Harper's Bazaar, The New York Times Fashion Magazine, Res, Wired, Readymade, Vice, Fruits, Nest (R.I.P), Objekt, The Week, Filmmaker Magazine, ELLE, ELLE Decor, Sculpture, and generally anything with glossy pages and pretty pictures.
