CURRENT MISSION

To be all there is to see.

ABOUT ME

We are two nominally wacky college students looking for ruins, rapport, and rapid transit systems.

PHILOSOPHY

European anarchism is the shit.

"When the answer cannot be put into words, neither can the question be put into words. The riddle does not exist. If a question can be framed at all, it is also possible to answer it." Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus 6.5

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We would like to find some cushy couches and friendly people around the Mediterranean. Hopefully we will be able to reciprocate when we have a couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We are new to CouchSurfing.

Interests

We like the poetry of Catullus, the political theory of Noam Chomsky, and the Tao.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taylor: I traveled on the wine-dark sea.

Laura: I saw rosy-fingered Dawn.

Teach, Learn, Share

We would love to teach the delights of morphosyntactic typology, Latin lyric poetry, and tea sipping.

We want to learn of shoes, and ships, and sealing-wax, of cabbages, and kings...
