CURRENT MISSION

to never eat moules frites again.

ABOUT ME

I currently live in fontainebleau, but am moving back to the US in march... I will miss the pintade and brie, but at least my french has improved enough to not look like an asshole when give directions. However, I've decided to live only in the present, since it's easier than conjugating all those verbs.

PHILOSOPHY

you only need one person to have a dance party, so have them as often as possible.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

for now, by being a friend to my fellow traveller. And couchsurfing on the weekends in paris. I would love to have coffee (well, beer), with anyone in fontainebleau.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

not through cs, I've hosted and slept all over, and with cs: stayed in dublin, hosted some kids from all over the world as well.

Intereses

idyllic little farms, snow (actually snow is only great for a day), museums, gin, history, humanitarian works, some design, children's lit, saturday mornings, bikes, places that are so huge they can only be described as vast, the ocean, the fiddle, hyper-real environments

Algo increíble que he hecho

trained camels after school as a teenager. And pigs. Camels sound more impressive, pigs are more rewarding.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

In New York, don't go to Times Square. Go to Ft. Greene, greenpoint, brighton beach, lots of places in Brooklyn. But please, do not go somewhere in Brooklyn you don't know about at night. Unless it's williamsburg. You can stay there all night and not get mugged; it's like my mom's house. In Los Angeles, don't go to a club in west hollywood or shopping on melrose; go to the museum of jurassic technology, go 70's roller disco skating in echo park, find the abandoned zoo in griffith park, go on a bike ride with a million different people at night (midnight ridazz)

always dress in layers!
