CURRENT MISSION less thinking, more doing. ABOUT ME I love ideas and art. I am a talker and a thinker. I enjoy wine and love food and am a vegetarian. I try to read often and look at art as much as i can. I live in New York and love urban living but enjoy trees (my Pacific Northwest roots). I am happiest when I'm having a great dinner with my friends and a nice walk after. PHILOSOPHY " You are so young,so much before all beginning, and I would like to beg you dear sir, as well as i can, to have patience with everything that remains unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked room or books written in a very foreign language." - Rilke

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I don't have a couch but I have a beautiful rug and a sleeping bag. I could also meet for a coffee or a drink if you want to have a friend for a day. I would love an excuse to do more tourist kinds of stuff in New York. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE so far really great. I have done it twice.
Music, Movies, and Books
Bands like: animal collective, the smiths, the beatles, slow dive, yo la tengo, stereo lab, joy division... Books: art and photo books! fiction and theory.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Living in San Francisco was a great experience. Some of my most favorite times were spent riding bikes with my friends at night and making a fire at the beach. Simple but vibrant.
