Why I'm on Couchsurfing
i spend a month traveling around Europe a long time ago and exclusively used couchsurfing (back when it was .org). a few years later, i ended up living in Australia for a year or so and met a lot of people on couchsurfing. i also went to a handful of meetups in Portland. i love meeting people with different experiences, lifestyles, and backgrounds than me.

music: most stuff. lately, samba and anything in portuguese, reggaeton, 70s soft rock (i.e. america), knocked loose, that mexican OT, and kinda everything in between, movies: federico fellini films, romcoms, and the occasional fast and furious film books: edward abbey, frank herbert, sartre, hemingway, alan watts, doug peacock, natasha lunn, etc.
