CURRENT MISSION

Always a problem, always a solution.

ABOUT ME

I'm still trying to find that balance between "having fun all the time" and "being a responsible adult." I think I'm doing a better job than many. I'm one of the few people I know who is good at both math and art; probably because both are predicated on patterns.

PHILOSOPHY

Stop complaining about how everything used to be better.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm not going to lie, I haven't used CS as a Web site since about 2009 or 10... I have, however, hosted several road cycling teams (and a bike polo team) from Chicago and Toronto at my home. Even as I've gotten more insular, the universe somehow keeps dropping new friends and happy strangers onto my sofa :P

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed on many a couch for months at a time... I feel it's time I return the favor to all who have extended such generosity to me!

兴趣

Bikes! Biking of all kinds. Travelling, commuting, trail riding, rolling parties. I'm also bad at cyclocross. I love yoga (specifically the Baptiste method) and toddler crafts. Civic involvement and gardening. Cooking, canning, so long as it's not baking.

音乐、电影和书籍

The Stooges, the White Stripes, Gogol Bordello, Manu Negra.

Books by Nikolai Gogol, Jonathan Safran Foer, Mikhail Bulgakov, and Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

Silent movies, foreign movies, documentaries, and bad action movies. Watching TV shows a season after they finish and generally feeling left out of the loop.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

The Perseid meteor shower over the Big Lake.

Being stuck on a bus with tickets that didn't exist at the Ukrainian/Polish border for 12+ hours.
