CURRENT MISSION Becoming a Minneapolan more and more every day. ABOUT ME While I work a ton right now, I love my jobs and my very active social life keeps me sane. A good concert schedule, meals with friends, and occasional shopping trips and dumpster diving help too. I love art events, game nights, and finding new food and drink establishments. Riding bikes in summer is good. PHILOSOPHY I want to share the joy of being alone with someone else.
Interested in Art
Fluent in English
Learning Italian

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I believe in the idea of trusting a stranger. It's an art form lost in our country. Especially post-9/11. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I enjoy cs experiences where I can be independent, both as host and as guest. I enjoy sharing a few meals, in or out, maybe hanging and listening to music, but more than anything, I like to see what will happen and not put too much pressure on hanging or not hanging. One of the best experiences I had was staying in Berkeley. My host graciously lent me his bike and I got to participate in Critical Mass.
Music, Movies, and Books
movies: everything Wes Anderson, Harold and Maude, The Graduate; authors: Milan Kundera, Salman Rushdie, Dave Eggers, JAck Kerouac; music: currently listening to the black lips, intelligence, and the carpenters
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Renting a landcruiser with friends and driving across Tibet had to be one of the most beautiful and spiritual roadtrips i've ever taken. The overnite sleeper bus was one of the scariest bus rides I've ever taken.
