CURRENT MISSION

explore, have fun

ABOUT ME

I'm a cross country and track runner at Carleton College, easy going, and psyched. I really like going for runs and then jumping into water. I also really like to cook. My favorite books include Pilgrim at Tinker Creek by Annie Dillard, Harry Potter, the fountainhead, and On the Road. I also love watching Planet Earth until I can get out there myself. I love camping and backpacking, and would love to spend my days as a trip leader/camp counselor. Until then, I'm in college studying English and some Biology.

PHILOSOPHY

To live with no regrets, and make the people around me happy.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I went swimming in the Atlantic at night with some friends, and we realized that every time we took a stroke, a stream of little fluorescent specks would light up. They looked like stars in the ocean. It turns out they were phosphorescent plankton that glow when they're disturbed.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I am really engaged with my studies, and would be happy to share my thoughts (right now I'm specifically studying Irish literature in Ireland). I really enjoy learning from others, and listening to their thoughts on current issues, life, music, politics.
