I can spin around 5 times before I get dizzy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Often, I need to get out of the place I'm at and go to where I can feel small and humbled by my environment. I need to remember I am not the sum of all my parts. I want to be able to go anywhere I can, what's the point if you aren't meeting great and interesting people?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I was performing in Hamburg and these old punks, full of hubris, yelled "play the music!"
I yelled back "I say when we play!" and they shut up and waited which is pretty incredible honestly.

Teach, Learn, Share

I honestly believe everyone has something to share if you're willing to listen, there's so much to learn and to contribute. I just want to be a part of the world I'm living in while I'm here. I'm down to hang out.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have some pretty great dance moves. I can also draw you a picture or something, write you a weird limerick.

But also I'm tidy and sweet when I'm not laughing too loudly.
