CURRENT MISSION To grasp opportunity in whatever guise it comes ABOUT ME I'm currently living in Boston doing my MA/MFA in Writing and Literature for Children. I traveled quite a bit when I was studying abroad in Oxford, and fell in love with Europe and Couchsurfing. I love music, theater, art, coffeeshops and parks. Also, I'm a nerd. PHILOSOPHY You only get so many chances in life, so don't let opportunities pass you by.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Just surfing right now, but when I have a real place to live in my not-a-student days I can't wait to give back! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Stayed with Nodis on a whirlwind trip to Dublin, meeting up with some couchsurfers in Oxford, surfing for a gig in Brighton and then surfed with several amazing hosts through Europe in Spring of 2009. Hope to do a lot more traveling this summer!
