About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Around the World (of Europe) in Eighty (well, only 25) Days

ABOUT ME

I'm a freewheeling, philosophical sort. I've been in grad school a couple years, and spend my time either reading and writing philosophical and theoretical texts in psychology and ontology, or going out with friends to have free fun freely. I strive to be equal parts childlike and bold.

PHILOSOPHY

Life should be a playful sort of thing, where with a happy heart we are willing to explore new places, meet new people, do new things, and think new ideas. Through a sort of openness, with a cultivated, carried sense of comfort, we can engage with the people and things around us in unexpected, revealing, and life-expanding ways.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing, hosting, and getting word out. Trying to make the world a friendlier place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very little so far, though I'm looking to change that this summer. My interests lead me, each summer, to a new place. I love meeting local people and making fast friends.

Interests

Reading, biking, board games, compy games, games in the woods, games on the field, on the beach, and on the rooftops.

Music, Movies, and Books

my latest new interest is Beardyman, and I'm about to read Thinking with Whitehead, just translated into English.
