About Me

I'm a student with a very full plate. I'm constantly moving, be it school or work or hikes or a plethora of side projects. When I'm not doing anything, I'm watching something I've already seen before; in this way I can do nothing for hours. I have three jobs, but three jobs in the way that none of them give me enough hours to make that impressive. I keep a well-stocked first aid kit and I like to take photos of people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like travel when I can, and I love meeting adventurers when I can't. Going to explore the site and get a feel for it before I start taking people in, though.

Interests

I have a great love and enthusiasm for many things, but because there's so much that I like to do there's not much I'm exceptional at. Art (traditional and digital) are my strong points. I dabble in photography and videography (just bought a polaroid camera!)

I'm a huge nerd; I love cartoons, but I only really watch a few, and I have hardly seen much anime. Sci-fi is great, but my knowledge of Star Trek is scattered across out-of-order episodes and generations. I'm a nerd of small, specific interests when it comes to fandom, and a nerd of massive scale when it comes to film analysis or the visual arts.

I love hiking. I'm terrible at it. My knee has problems and I'm out of shape, but I don't curse the journey. I've lived in Reno for nearly my entire life, and I know so much of the area that exploring it is half familiar and half discovering something new about a favorite and well-worn book.

Music, Movies, and Books

I hit play and music happens and I listen to it.If I don't like it I skip the song? I dunno my taste is broad and not always in English and isn't always with a singer and it can be top hits or disney musicals, I kind of go all directions.

Film! I sit in on a film class that I've taken twice at the university. Professor's cool with it. I found I liked Lost Horizon but didn't enjoy The Conversation. La Fem Nikita was amazing, I had to defend the 1970s Superman series with vehemence, and I consider Mad Max to be the cinematic event of the century. I'm currently building a little home theater in my living room.

Books! I grew up with Tamora Pierce books close to my heart, and it's an old favorite of mine. I enjoyed Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett deeply, but my reading is generally fanfictions?? I don't have money for books and there's some just as good stuff out there that doesn't need to spend a whole lot of time on exposition. I like adventure, suspense, and horror.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
