I think a lot about architecture and the intersections between art history, architecture and urban design, etymology, big fluffy dogs, brûléeing, well-designed furniture, geometry, contemporary history, all things macabre and escaping to the mountains.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
We are heading to Iceland, Scandinavia and mainland Europe over the summer and are hoping to meet up! We will mostly be camping. I have had such wonderful experiences on Couchsurfing in previous travels and I can't wait to meet more people.
Music, Movies, and Books
Van Morrison, Father John Misty, Bob Dylan, The Jezabels, O.C.M.S., Future Islands, Billy Joel, James Taylor, Bon Iver. Abbey, Steinbeck, Muir, Miller, Didion, and Wolfe are the usual suspects, but I would love recommendations.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
If you could see the amount of bread I can eat in one sitting, you would think I'm a witch.
My Interests
I also enjoy live music, general geography and geology, bouldering and canyoneering, sketching and watercolors, swimming in rivers and hot springs, and riding bikes in the sun (I grew up in Oregon, where we always rode in the rain.)
