CURRENT MISSION

I would like to say that I'm trying to strike a blow against the wicked. Turns out I AM the wicked. Weird.

ABOUT ME

I'm a Viking thunder god looking for a good time and a damn good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

As far as formal schools of philosophical thought go, I tend towards American pragmatism and Utilitarianism. As for my personal philosophy, do the best you can with what you've got.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I'm a working student, I tend to host more than travel for the time being, which rocks because I get to meet new people without leaving home! Next best thing to traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I've hosted a several people and loved every minute of it.

Music, Movies, and Books

BOOKS: Douglas Adams, Mark Twain, John Steinbeck, Scott Carrier, V.S. Ramachandran, Dr. Seuss, Nick Hornsby, Tarantino, Michael Moore, Arthur Conan Doyle, the list goes on and on. I love science reading, medicine, and real literary narrative. Ask if you want to hear more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching another person doing a nice thing for another, with nothing to gain, is damn near a miracle in this crazy mixed-up world of ours. And still a fairly regular occurrence if you look closely enough.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a certified EMT-Intermediate, I'm an anthropologist, and an aspiring medical professional. Things I can teach: some very basic cooking and baking, anatomy, first aid. Stuff I'd love to learn: blues guitar, piano, better cooking than mine, philosophy, and I definitely need more practice with my foreign languages. Any will do. I also happen to be interested in everything, so go ahead and lay it on me.
