two crazies do not make a sane

ABOUT ME

Most people tell me that I'm not such a bad guy. Well hopefully they say that I'm a nice guy. Or cute. Or funny. I think that when you are just being yourself, you are automatically all these things.
I prefer to sit back and take things in, observe dynamics before I throw myself into them. If I seem quiet or reserved you may think that I'm being aloof, but don't be fooled— I open up quickly, especially if you are open and engaging! I will answer almost anything you ask me, and I have a good (sometimes a little strange; ok, well really strange) sense of humor.
I love taking care of others and making them feel comfortable. I am the guy who will host a cocktail party for his own birthday and spends the whole night playing bartender. I am happy to go along with activities when I am invited, in fact I love to spontaneously make plans with others. However... this does not mean I can spontaneously host, you will have the best luck couchsurfing with me if you write more than a couple days in advance. Also, if your request looks like you didn't really write it to me personally (it is very easy to tell), then I might not feel comfortable opening up my home to you.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just being another cog in the big wheel, but each one is integral to it's function! Before I joined Couchsurfing, I have on occasion had many couchsurfers, known and sometimes unknown, (especially when we used to have a couch out on the porch that people would sometimes just show up on!)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only stayed with a few people through couchsurfing and have yet to actually host a surfer in my own home, though I have met them for drinks and shown them the sights... pretty much everyone that I have had contact with through this has been very pleasant. My hosts have all been spectacular people, some of whom I now feel blessed to have as friends.

兴趣

I love music, art, independent and experimental film, sociological innovation, homosexuality, most animals and pets, the outdoors, the big city, and pretty much anything that has alcohol in it (but I'm a well-mannered boy who knows his limits). I love all kinds of food and enjoy preparing new meals, especially Indian, Mexican, Middle Eastern, or anything spicy, and try to cook at home as much as possible.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Seeing a live performance of Hedwig and the Angry Inch and having her sit on my lap. Roasting and grinding cacao beans to make chocolate on an organic farm/school in Ecuador and then enjoying it with the best bananas ever (sounds pretty hippie, right?) Making lifelong friends with a random stranger on the street in a foreign country, when they were singing a song I recognized and I chimed in...
