CURRENT MISSION

To save the world through random cultural interchange on my couch and the couches of others.

ABOUT ME

My friends would say that I'm open and honest, like to have intriguing conversations, and enjoy a good time whether it be in a party setting or with a close group of friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Malleable. I like to move in different circles and experience different ideas and ways of living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf and host, so do not hesitate to ask to stay with me!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed while I was in France, and have hosted a couple at my place. I hope to host more, and also surf more in the US in the near future.

Interests

I enjoy theatre a lot as well as philosophy, foreign cultures (which I guess is obvious), and politics (I know more about US politics than international politics, but I'm not completely ignorant in the international realm). I also enjoy spending time outside and exploring parts of the city that I've never visited.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There have been two or three instances where I have seen a theatrical production and been awestruck by the performances. I have been awestruck by nature, in particular by mountains. I also tend to be awestruck by the juxtaposition of massive natural forces in the presence of large urban buildings (i.e. the waves of Lake Michigan crashing on the shore with the skyline of Chicago in the background) as there is something unsettlingly wonderful about these sights.
