People tell me they love my energy and my positivity. I'd say that I'm a little quirky: I drink coffee out of a metal straw, only read the Tuesday NY Times, listen to LP's and read actual books, go to the theatre alone, love beer, skiing, and antique cars. And I cook and eat constantly ;)
What makes me happy? Reading in coffee shops, eating yummy pescetarian food, listening to music, singing, being with friends, the YMCA, meeting new people, seeing the world...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm coming to France in the beginning of January and I'd love to couch surf in Paris from Jan 5-9. Money is tight and I'd love to stay with someone who can tell me the best places to go, maybe take me around a bit, and definitely help me out with French!

Music, Movies, and Books

So much! Singer/Songwriter types: Ben Folds, Elvis Costello, Dar Williams,
Classical, Jazz, Blues, some Country

I love indie type, character driven movies with great acting, BUT there's plenty of room for classics, good 'ole 80's John Hughes type movies, the occasional blockbuster and the occasional stupid/fun movie
