Hi, my name is Ben Evans! I do not like labels or titles, I just am. However, in the interest of this endeavor...I am the founder & executive editor of the international arts review, "Fogged Clarity" (http://foggedclarity.com), a contributing writer for "The Huffington Post": http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ben-evans/, a published poet, and a technical writer for a firm in NYC (though I write remotely).

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love people & experiences: walks, lights, smells, conversations, wine, cuisine, life. I get on quite well with both. I recently moved to the South, though I had my reservations about its cultural history (over those, love almost everyone) and am ready to dig in and meet some cool folks and see some cool stuff. I have a lot to contribute.

兴趣

Many of my interests are represented in "Fogged Clarity" http://foggedclarity.com, a journal I've devoted most of my adult life to developing. I love art and music, interacting with people, nature and exercising.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Some find it amazing that I was the starting fullback for a Division 1 football team (Colgate University) and also earned an MFA in Poetry from one of the top Creative Writing Programs in the country. Life is amazing.

教，学，和分享

I've accrued some stories over the years. I'm at a really exciting place in my journey right now and would love to discuss it with people.
