CURRENT MISSION

I like going on road trips with friends, especially if they have some sort of a grander mission.

ABOUT ME

I'm tall, lanky, and often read books while on walks. I'm never without a book.

PHILOSOPHY

"Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of any other, never merely as a means to an end, but always at the same time as an end."

I feel like Kant's second categorical imperative is pretty good starting point.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I cook and clean.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with friends, have friends stay with me, met people who were couch surfing who became friends, had friends couch surf... I've done everything but couchsurf myself. So far.

Interests

I really like reading. History, political theory, social justice. Some philosophy, but nothing too arcane. I really like cats, dogs are nice too.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like delta blues, slide blues guitar, folksy-sounding stuff, jazz. I read almost entirely nonfiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Helped in the campaign to get my university to kick the bucket on sweatshop apparel goods.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm interested in social history and odd political theory, but I've also done some reading-up on alternative ethics for friendships and other relationships and interpersonal communication. Currently I've been reading up on race in America.
