Super laid-back culture junkie with a love for traveling, food and good alcohol.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm new to this site, but I would love to host people once I move out of my mom's basement. Someday...
Until then, I'm just a moocher
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
A close friend and I once couch surfed between friends and family in Tokyo. It was an amazing experience. I also routinely couch surf in Portland, OR when I feel like getting out of Seattle for a while.
Interests
I love culture. The way that we as humans create a nuanced system of interactions that is considered "normal," and then proceed to enforce, reinforce and ignore them is fascinating to me. Of particular interest is artistic expressions of culture through music, film and cuisine.
One of my favorite parts of any trip is discovering new local flavors. Food is such an important part of any culture and it excites me each time I get to try something new. Some things I might politely decline, though. I can only be as adventurous as my senses will allow.
