Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet interesting people, have good conversation, and learn more about the world through the people I meet and the places I visit.

Centres d'intérêt

I studied cognitive science and art history, so I like museums about technology/media, art galleries, and other music/art/media/culture things. I write a bit, code a bit and cook great vegan food. I like making community radio and listening to music. I love good beer and thrifting!

I love to dance. I was trained in ballet, jazz, tap, for 10 years growing up and have taken classes in a bunch of other styles like dancehall, Indian classical, and hip hop. I haven't tried a dance style I didn't like -- always open to go dancing or learn a new style!

I listen mostly to pop, rock, and experimental music. I am really digging Janelle Monae and SZA these days and I love classic country (Bob Wills, Patsy Cline, Ernest Tubb, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Merle Haggard, Hank Williams, etc).

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I know a little about a lot of things.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I would love to cook a big meal for everyone and discuss culture and society over a bottle of wine.
