Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have surfed several times, all good experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's worked out really well. Couchsurfer hosts are, so far, pretty damn awesome.

Interests

See http://s.ai (I do a lot of stuff!)

• meditation
• communications
• languages
• law
• psychology

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly intellectual / geeky bits. I prefer wit over slapstick. Most of what I read these days is either for work or research...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm not sure what others would call "amazing". Most of what has left an impression on me wouldn't mean anything to someone else, and sometimes stuff I consider relatively normal seems to surprise/impress others.

So, I don't know.

Teach, Learn, Share

Here are some things I've presented at conferences. Should give a sense of what things I'm into teaching.

* Cognitive psychology - see my YouTube channel: http://youtube.com/cogsai
