CURRENT MISSION

Live extraordinarily.

ABOUT ME

I'm honest, comical, and curious. I love getting to know new people, places, and ideas.

PHILOSOPHY

There needs no reason for us to have been created. What matters is what we do with such a gift.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet new people from different places. The world is too big, and quality relationships can make it seem a bit smaller.

Interests

I like to think and try to draw conclusions about the nature of humanity and the universe.

• poetry
• dancing
• meditation
• movies
• music
• hiking
• snowboarding
• philosophy
• psychology
• sociology
• nature
• biking
• metaphysics
• veganism

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies that make me feel, music that makes me dance, and books that make me write.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's too hard to choose. Even the simplest of things can be astounding, but I will give you a taste of a memory that cannot be easily expressed in words.

To my right was the giant luminescent moon rising in a mist of purple and blue, and to my left was the sun setting amidst orange and crimson red, as I floated far out and alone in the gentle suspension of the Dead Sea.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a fair bit about linguistics, language acquisition, and pedagogy. I also guide meditations, dance, and wrestle (jiu jitsu anyone?).

What I Can Share with Hosts

My travels and loves, joys and sorrows, interesting conversations, love for all the visceral experiences of the world, and lots of smiles and warmth. =)
