Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to learn, experience, live, and have a little fun along the way
ABOUT ME
I'm smart, mildly sarcastic, and manage to genuinely enjoy life most of the time. I love traveling and learning about other cultures when I'm not studying physics
PHILOSOPHY
A few quotes that I think describe my outlook on life fairly well.
"Those who think sunshine is pure joy have never danced in the rain"
"Reality is only an illusion, albeit a very persistent one" -Einstein
"When asked if the glass is half empty or half full, say that it is full. Just because you can't see or feel air doesn't mean it's not there."
-Me :-)
Do what you will, but harm none.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm offering a couch and or a futon in my apartment and hope to couch surf
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've only couchsurfed or hosted a couple times, but it's always worked out great. It's wonderful having someone you know in the city to give you an idea of where to go and what are the coolest parts.
Interests
the hows and whys, card games, reading, ice cream, life...I enjoy life. Living is fun, I recommend it. disclaimer: life is not for everyone and if you suffer adverse affects, I can not be blamed. I also am interested in physics.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like the books with stories in them. More specifically, Sci-fi, Fantasy, and Mystery. Even more specifically, my current obsessions are:
Jacqueline Carey, Anne Bishop, Barb and J.C Hendee, Kurt Vonnegut and Laurell Hamiliton.
Movies: Boondock Saints, Love actually, Braveheart, and many more I can't think of.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Via Ferrata up the Bastille, a mountain on the edge of the French alps. It's a lot like rock climbing but requires less skill. It was by far the scariest and the coolest thing I've ever done to be hanging off a cliff side looking down over Grenoble. I recommend it to everyone, they are all over Europe.
Teach, Learn, Share
I know a fair number of card games and am always willing to share or learn more.
