I'm a disorganized fiction writer with a day job at a social service organization. I'm into meeting all sorts of new people, cooking meals for anyone who will eat them, reading and discussing books, and eavesdropping on people in bars.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I quit my job and gave away most of my stuff a few years ago to embark on eight months of traveling in both the US and abroad. I couchsurfed (with a joint profile I shared with my then-partner) in Denmark, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Croatia, and France, and all of my experiences were incredible. I've never couchsurfed in the United States - at least not yet!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I stayed on a boat in Copenhagen with a couchsurfing host. It was last-minute and a cramped but awesome surprise. We woke up gently bobbing to the sunrise. We also hopped the huge fence of the city cemetery (with my host's bike!) to go check out Hans Christian Anderson's grave.

I ate bagels with Steve Buscemi once.

教，学，和分享

I'd love to just hear any stories you've got to share.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can edit anything you got that needs it, read aloud to you, or cook you a damn fine vegetarian meal.
