COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE couch surfing has enriched my travel experiences time and time again. i am so grateful for this network of wonderful, inspiring people. i haven't been able to host anyone because i've been on the move myself, but i hope to welcome plenty of wanderers in the future!

let's chat more when we meet because music/book/film exchanges are the best! i think that the greatest art speaks to the soul. i have a serious love of music, especially toe-tapping tunes performed live. when it comes down to it, i've belted out joni mitchell's "blue" album and read arundhati roy's "the god of small things" about a bajillion times and they have yet to lose their magic. rilke is a poet of the heart. kurt vonnegut's "cat's cradle" simultaneously cracks me up and makes me think. "tao te ching" is a manual for life. "baraka" is a mystical ride, and "amelie" lifts my spirit.
