Spontaneous, sometimes conniving, generally kind, and curious.
I like being near water, being outside, music-dancing-singing, making videos, and having fun conversations.
I have family in the Midwest (USA), NYC, along the East Coast, and Austria-- I've been to a few places outside the US and the best memories always center around the people I've been with-- not the location itself usually...

I'm a pretty thoughtful and helpful person-- if you want to stay with me, don't hesitate!
If I'm trying to stay with you, I'd really appreciate it! I'm optimistic you'll also get something unique from the experience haha

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've been to CSurfing meet+greets in both Washington DC and Beijing-- and came away from both having met unique and kind people with bottomless curiosity and desire to learn and explore.

I like being in new places and meeting new people ! Hooray for this website.

I've used the website several times in the past to meet up with people- once to stay with someone.

兴趣

In my free time I make videos, music, I write...

I listen to music constantly

I graduated from Pomona College (CA) majoring in media studies-- my final senior paper compared contemporary representations of police brutality and past representations of lynchings in the US. I'm interested in how the medium influences the politics and affect of the content/communication within the form.
I'm also interested in psychoanalytic theory (Freud stuff) applied to media. I like considering the politics of fantasy and romanticism in general-- and plan on going to grad school (phd) to expand media analysis critical of race and gender representation.
Uses of the Erotic by Audre Lorde AND Beyond Hope by Derrick Jensen are two of my favorite short articles/texts.
