CURRENT MISSION To get out of the ordinary. ABOUT ME I'm cynical and pessimistically optimistic. I love nature and learning about biology. I'm more of a home body but love a good adventure. I'm an active member in the Sierra Club and try to volunteer in my neighborhood regularly. I love a good latte and just relaxing in the coffeeshops around town (May Day is my fave). I'm also a dedicated beer snob.

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I've hosted around 30 times (I think. I've lost count) and surfed four times in the fabulous city of DC, lovely Grand Junction, CO, the cultural-center of LA, and the very hospitable Minneapolis (before I moved here). They were all wonderful experiences. It's so great giving what I could to a fellow traveler. I understand how far kindness goes when you're traveling in a foreign land. I was privileged to provide that kindness.

我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
My most memorable experiences have been appreciating the unscheduled activities. I love just sitting in a foreign coffee shop playing Scrabble with my sister. Or rowing across the frigid Lake Yellowstone on an intensely warm day in July. Or uncontrollably cracking up at a train station in Germany during the wee hours of the night.
教学、学习、分享
I love teaching and learning about how the world works. Specifically nature. My specialty is botany. I love learning about philosophy and history.
我能与房东分享的
I love showing off my city which might include a bike ride to breweries, a personal auto site seeing tour, or exploring the museums. I know a fair amount of history for Minneapolis and St. Paul and would love an excuse to learn more.
我的兴趣
I love science, geeky board games, books and movies. I go to yoga as often as I can although I should go a lot more. I love riding my bike although I'm not in superb shape. My week is usually filled with friends crafting, drinking beer and playing games or just hanging out.
