I'm curious. And I humor and facilitate my own curiosity primarily with the activity of writing. Beyond writing, I do a fair amount of reading and some painting.

Questions keeping me going. Centrally, I want to know answers to—probably timeless—philosophical questions. Meanwhile, I'll keep writing, meeting people, and looking for practical problems to solve. For example, I'd like to change healthcare.

I've been know to engage in backpacking, camping, surfing, snowboarding, hiking, kayaking, mountain biking, and rafting, among other outdoorsy activities. Relative to USA's borders, I've lived outside in North Africa and Central Asia, and inside in VA and NM.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My primary interests here are making new connections, finding community, and learning about San Fransisco and the surrounding area. I'm curious and easygoing.

Reduced cost travel, and to make friends while traveling.

Meeting new people is fun and interesting.
