CURRENT MISSION

to make stories

ABOUT ME

I'm quiet at first, but once you get to know me, you'll realize I'm rather ridiculous. I'm an absolute nerd about literature and art and a handful of other random topics. I find all sorts of things arbitrarily delightful, try to see the best in people, and generally hope to end today in a slightly more awesome world than the day before.
I'm a third year student of theology and literature, hoping to see a bit of the world before I (eventually) become an English teacher.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm going to steal from John Green on this one:
"Don't forget to be awesome."
Also, stories. We're in an epic one, we might as well live like it.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently studying abroad, and hoping to see a bit of the world while I do it!
Hopefully, when I'm a bit more established back home, I'll be able to host...

兴趣

I love stories--reading, writing, listening, telling. I think of life as a story and like meeting interesting characters, going on adventures...
I like seeing places I've read about, drawing dinosaurs on napkins, learning to cook, and dancing. Also, I love sharing coffee and conversation, whether about movies, experiences, or ideas of how to live life well.

音乐、电影和书籍

I'm such a nerd about literature. Give me Tolkien, Shakespeare, Huxley, Wilder, Neruda, Lewis, Heller, and the list goes on and on...

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

The first time I went camping up in the Adirondacks, our group came back from a night hike to find that the sky was perfectly clear and we could see the Milky Way stretched out over the lake. Lying on a rock, looking up into that infinity... that was a moment I shan't forget.

Also, on one of my first nights here in St Andrews, we found our way to the old Cathedral ruins. Seeing--and touching--something that incredibly old (older than my country!)and majestic was awesome.

教，学，和分享

I used to teach social ballroom dancing... I'd love to do a bit of that again.
I'm always up for learning how to cook something new and delicious!
