CURRENT MISSION

To grow old, be an adult, and die. No more.

ABOUT ME

I'm outgoing, bookish, I like to laugh, I love wine and conversation, talking politics, starting movements, expatriotism, building friendships around the world, and learning new languages.

PHILOSOPHY

"Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both."
- Benjamin Franklin

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to the site, but I will have a couch available to share once I get back from travelling this summer. Right now I'm looking for someone to host me in Athens, Greece.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been an exchange student in Ireland and Italy, but have not yet hosted. I don't live close to a major metropolitan area, but if anyone's visiting Baltimore I live about 10 minutes away, if you're visiting Washington DC I live near the train station and it's about 30 minutes from my house to DC.

兴趣

Research, travel, music, languages, higher education, repealing the Patriot Act, writing, performance, publishing, intellectual freedom, building global youth consensus.

音乐、电影和书籍

There are far too many media gems that are close to my heart to list. A brief sampling: Boom!, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, and Streetcar Named Desire. My favorite artists these days are Laura Nyro, Nina Simone, Magnetic Fields, MGMT, and Dead Can Dance. At the moment I am reading Secret History by Tartt.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I ran a cabaret in Baltimore city for two seasons.

教，学，和分享

I read tarot cards, am an expert in English and can teach intermediate students, and I am a Permaculture enthusiast. I can also be a tour guide for you at any museum of Greek or Roman civilization, especially Bronze Age Mycenaean or Minoan, my speciality.
