ABOUT ME

I've traveled extensively around the United States and a little overseas. Once I received my degree in 2010, I began traveling more full time and working at National Parks.

At the moment my partner, Zane, and I are in France couchsurfing in different cities until the end of May. We'll be spending June in Munich and the Black Forest before heading home. Send me a message if you want to meet up!

I love meeting new people and opening my mind up to different points of view. I also enjoy writing letters, so if you are looking for a pen pal let me know! Making coffee/espresso is a big passion. I'd love to meet people that share it. I also love music, and occasionally book shows in the States.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books- Inga Muscio, Emma Goldman, Haruki Murakami, J.D. Sallinger, Noam Chomsky, Tom Robbins, Charles Bukowski, Kurt Vonnegut, Howard Zinn and zines.

Music- All over the place, but lately a lot of Black Sabbath, The Smiths, and Adele. I like folk, indie, pop punk, rock n roll, stoner metal. I'm very open to anything. Music is an amazing force that brings people together.

Teevee- Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire, 30Rock, How I Met Your Mother, Glee.

I love movies. I could watch one everyday if I had the time. Lot's of documentaries, dramas and period pieces. Black Swan is my most recent favorite, though.
