我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

"To boldly go" where I have never gone before without being required a caravan and find the stars on earth in the people I meet and places I see; to chronicle my adventures and perhaps build up a repository of unforgettable experiences from which to draw for my creative aspirations, to network for various future projects that hopefully lead to something new to inspire and challenge the world.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I got a ham radio license as a child back when Morse code was in vogue; I had a paper of mine in college about film complemented as post-grad work; I exchanged words and met with the likes of Werner Herzog, Francis Ford Coppola, David Hayter, Cassandra Peterson, Ken Burns, and Clive Owen; I have handled and helped my father with his collection of film memorabilia both in terms of preservation and exhibition.

教，学，和分享

I have a wide variety of interests which I have pursued my 35 years and feel confident that I would have a lot I could share and perhaps even teach. I swam on a professional swim team for over 6 years and served as a lifeguard and would be happy to offer support in this. As a lifelong learner and someone homeschooled I have been writing poetry since my teens and am educated in many facets of literature and the arts, adding to this are my experiences in travel where I have visited and investigated many sites of architecture and art that many only read about. With also having a near lifelong interest in video games and film I have both enjoyed these mediums from the more layman to the more scholarly. Currently, as an aspiring game developer I have been studying how pixel art works under its limitations to give the illusion of the objects we know in our 3D world.
