About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Save Save Save! The scatter my hard earnings to the four thousand best cafes of the world!

ABOUT ME

I like to live in cities before I move on. I went to India but stayed in Jaipur and loved getting to know the hidden treasures. I went to Canada but mostly lived in Vancouver. I want to live in cities or small towns on every continent on the planet. I want to be able to speak a little bit of everything, know a little bit of everywhere, and understand a little bit of everyone. To help this process I plan on becoming immortal or die trying!

PHILOSOPHY

The greatest of all influences sometimes comes from the most unlikely of places: Remember what the door mouse said; feed your head.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have only recently moved into a new house Filled with couch surfers. We're our own little community. We can't always host people but we will try as often as we can. In the mean time I mostly try to get to a few meetings and spread the word that is our little community's philosophy

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Both life enriching and heart breaking. I love building strong connections with strangers and discovering long lost friends in new people. I love meeting people from such diverse back grounds coming together for the same purpose, with completely different motives. Heart breaking whenever I have to leave these people, knowing I may never see them again. But this never stops me from meeting new people.

Interests

My main passion, currently, is my poetry. I don't ever expect to be published or believe I am great, I just enjoy writing and performing it. I work to live, I live for my passions (not the best mode of life to choose from). I'm also an avid reader, a keen interest in yoga, and an occasional reader of philosophy. Music fits in there somewhere as often as I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't have a long list of books or music or movies, mostly because I often forget what I've enjoyed, but I enjoy mostly everything. From Rocky Horror to The Nines, from Neil Gainman to Isaac Asiminov, from Tool to Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings. Somewhere in between these spectrums is my range of preference.
