CURRENT MISSION I'm exploring myself and exploring the world around me. I believe that experience is paramount and am seeking a more enriching environment. ABOUT ME I like learning and having a good time (often the two coincide for me). I'm introverted but friendly. I enjoy deep conversations, but am by no means serious all the time. I prefer small groups of people I can have a conversation with and house parties. I'm pretty independent, and I do what I want most of the time. I like speaking other languages. PHILOSOPHY Treat others as you would like to be treated, but always take care of yourself.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I like to meet travellers to exchange with them my semi-permanent expat perspective for their viewpoint. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've met a few people via couchsurfing who are really interesting.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: everything except country and most pop Movies: Zombie movies, horror movies, suspense films, war movies, documentaries and anything well-made. Books: dystopia novels, catch-22, the shock doctrine, the end of faith
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I went to the island of Santorini, Greece and decided to climb a cliff from the black-sand beach to the ruins of Ancient Thira. No one else was there and I explored for hours.
