I'm extremely laid back. I've been told I seem older than I am. I like to have a good time and I love to laugh. Sometimes I'm funny. I'm a dabbler in a lot of things. I like to draw, read, paint, play instruments, watch movies; I enjoy photography, traveling, eating, sleeping, etc. I get along with most people I meet, both in my professional life and my personal life. LIFE PHILOSOPHIES: People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel. --Maya Angelou In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take. In 900 years of time and space, I've never met anyone who wasn't important. --Doctor Who

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
It's a way to (hopefully) connect with people. I'd like to travel eventually and this is a great way to do so. EXPERIENCE: None, though I have slept over at friends' places. I've slept on couches, church floors, gym floors (the latter two for the club sport I was in)
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Keane, Mat Kearney, Hozier, Movies: You've Got Mail, Sleepless in Seattle (there's a pattern here), The Holiday, Guardians of the Galaxy Books: Brave New World, Ender's Game, Bonk, The Naked Lady Who Stood On Her Head, Elephants on Acid
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I drew a portrait recently that's pretty good
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: swimming, water polo, rowing, some math, (oh geez, I'm not very useful) Learn: everything and anything! Share: stories
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can put in effort to cook (I will need internet access and patience). I'm not well known for cooking. I am clean and a gracious person. I can provide comedic relief. I am somewhat okay with guitar and piano. I can belt out a tune if karaoke/shower type singing/car type singing is your style.
My Interests
music reading art (photography/drawing) fashion movies tv shows
