CURRENT MISSION

I'm here to rock.

ABOUT ME

I like to think that I'm a quiet yet friendly person, easy to get along with, and a hard worker. I enjoy watching people, animals, decoupage "art" and thrift store diving.

PHILOSOPHY

still working on it

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not at all yet, but I sometimes pick up hitch hikers...does that count?
When I get a couch of my own again, cool people are more than welcome to surf upon it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I rented a room in Chicago through Craigslist once, and it turned out well. My host and I ended up hanging out. We went to the zoo, a bar in Boystown, and an awesome Mexican restaurant. Joey Luna, if you're reading this, drop me a line and we'll talk! Other than that, nothing...I had friends in Prague who met people through this service and used it a lot. But, I usually do farmstays when I travel.

音乐、电影和书籍

I am very interested in traditional folk and electronic music, indie films that aren't too pretentious, ethnologies, books like "West With the Night", "Middlesex", "Holy Cow" and "No Touch Monkey!" and anything by Barbara Kingsolver or David Sedaris.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Kayaking through the Summer Solstice on Mono Lake, a salt lake with amazing rock formations (in California).

教，学，和分享

Well...
I have skills in jewelry making, paper and candle making, and cooking. I can wield a mean pick-mattock and paint a tin roof.
