Hi. I’m originally from the us. I’m mixed ethnically and culturally. I’ve lived all over the world. The last twelve years of which have been in Brussels. I can be a bit shy, take awhile to warm up to people, and I generally lead an insular life.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Because I’ve had some of the best experiences of my life while traveling, and I think it should be easier and more accessible and sustainable. I like to meet new people from new places.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music - I’ll generally listen to anything but I do have a soft spot for jazz and new wave.

Movies - I love film(except horror), but rarely get to watch as many as I would like. Some favourites: American beauty, fight club, the ninth gate, the matrix, the talented mister ripley, the sixth sense, the virgin suicides, dogma. 1999 was a good year for cinema😅
A more recent favourite, Youth.

Books - Either something scholarly, or sci-fi and fantasy. Anything by Neal Stephenson, and like many I’m still waiting for The doors of stone.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Eating roasted chestnuts on the snow dusted and deserted streets of London in the early 90's. Leaned over the precipice along the sheer walls of the Andes and been held aloft by the wind. Getting lost amongst the backroads and small towns of Sicily. Sat out in the rocky arabian desert at dusk and listened to the call to prayer carried on a sweet warm wind. Eaten from one end of an Asian street food market to the other. By far the best, was living in an impromptu communal group in a hostel dorm in Prague.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Just about anything.

I’m happy to help out around the house any way that I can. I’m particularly good at assembling ikea furniture, sewing, and baking.

Of course conversation and story swapping.
