About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit numerous countries, make lots of friends, experience new and different cultures, and get into a few wacky and wild adventures without any lasting repercussions.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy lots of different kinds of people. Except for people who hit me, because it makes me want to hit them back. And people who spit.And people who try to make me join their cults. Silly and funny people get a pass from all those restrictions, though.

I'll try anything at least once. I love music, movies, beer, wine, good food and beautiful surroundings, no matter how uncommon that all seems.I love children and pets.

PHILOSOPHY

"Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals...except for the weasels".
Homer Simpson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently moving, have no couch, but would be happy to show people around NYC if I can!

Will be traveling to Finland in June. There should be a level below beginner for Finnish: something like "Has learned to correctly pronounce a word". I'm super excited though!
