Outwardly 22, inwardly 78 year old illustrator and aspiring Classics professor, olympic knitter, archaeologist, and cactus farmer. Looking to draw and paint my way across the US.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I spent a semester abroad in Italy, the summer traveling, researching, drawing, working, and getting lost in all of the the right places. Now all I can think about is getting back out there. Post graduation I plan to draw, read, write, and paint my way across the United States. To what end? I can't say for sure right now, but above all I'm looking for new experiences, interesting conversation, and different perspectives.

兴趣

Art, history, everything ancient Greek/Roman, hiking, camping, cats, cryptids, and all sorts of crafts.
