I like cider brewing (it's really easy and delicious), ambient noises, communication, dumpster diving, consensus-based decision processes, skiing, and cooking.

I study applied mathematics for a living. This means I get to dabble in many subjects, which makes me feel like I don't know anything.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Because all the cool people are doing it! Actually. I have met some ridiculously enriching people on here.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I <3 minimal and deep techno and house. <3<3<3

Favorite contemporary fiddler: Chance McCoy.

Ridiculously artful variations on a theme: The Book of Laughter and Forgetting, Milan Kundera.

Deep-as-hell novel about life, the universe, and everything: The Lost Steps, Alejo Carpentier.

One of the most accessible and moving poetry titles I ever read: Spring Poems by the Rio Grande, Jimmy Santiago Baca.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I helped start a labor union.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I love teaching math and physics, and find it especially rewarding to help kids see beauty in math. I have a couple years' experience keeping bees and know how to maintain cast iron cookware. I would really love to learn some German and Icelandic. Even after years of school, the only thing I can do exceptionally well is washing dishes.
