About Me

ABOUT ME

The most effective test of compatibility is how well two people can travel together. With that being said, here are my seven travel virtues:

1.) Make plans and break them
2.) Try something at least twice
3.) Befriending local people is better than sightseeing
4.) Learn what to say when you toast
5.) Take any opportunity to play music or dance
6.) Mellow days are not days wasted
7.) It's not an adventure unless something goes wrong

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am completely new to couchsurfing.

Interests

  • dancing

  • sightseeing

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, My Uncle Oswald, City of Thieves, Lolita, The Four Hour Workweek series, Change By Design

Currently reading 'The Circle' by Dave Eggers which is like reading a dystopian sci-fi novel about my life. (If you've read it and currently work for Google, I'd love to get your two cents.)

TV: After several years of people telling me to do so, I just started Game of Thrones...yeah, I know. Luckily I've managed to round up some folks who were in the same boat and now we have a GoT/wine night at my place once a week.

Movies: Anything Woody Allen (especially his later stuff – Match Point, Vicky Christina Barcelona, and of course Midnight in Paris), Amelie, Ghostbusters, Star Wars

Teach, Learn, Share

Music has been a part of my life since as long as I can remember. When I was young, I used to fall asleep at night to the sounds of my Dad across the house playing Eric Clapton songs on the guitar. These days, I keep my trusty ol' six string hanging from the wall so I can play whenever I want.
