Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am interested in the mutual transmission of knowledge, stories, skills, and passions. Travel should be about enriching one's life through meaningful experiences and connections -- let's do just that.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Folk music, bluegrass, classical, jazz, soft rock, world music, and anything new! Movies: Planet Earth, Grand Budapest Hotel, LoTR, Wizard of Oz, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, foreign films, documentaries TV: Curb your Enthusiasm, Game of Thrones, Westworld Books: Lots of non-fiction science. My favorite fiction books are Cien Anos de Soledad, Don Quixote, The Count of Monte Cristo, In Search of Lost Time, & Shakespeare
Teach, Learn, Share
There is no shortage of things to talk about... over beer.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I offer friendly conversations, stories, music, and I love cooking for hosts if time allows!
My Interests
I am a botany graduate student at KU. Botanizing, birding, hiking, reading, and making new things are all things that make me happy. Right now I am learning the banjo!
