hi.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

road trips, sleeping, my next move, foreign languages, travel pals, humanitarianism, running away to any major city, europe,

visiting these places in no particular order:

candido godoi
the hill of crosses
salton sea
auschwitz-birkenau
centralia
grossinger's catskill resort
maunsell forts

...and always adding new areas.
