CURRENT MISSION

Maintain my body temperature above freezing!

ABOUT ME
Things I have learned in America:

Tipping is something you do to a waiter, not a cow. Silverware isn't silver. Soylent green is scrapple. Hot pockets only need to be heated for 18 minutes, not 28, the instructions are a lie.

The fact that someone owns a gun here, does not mean they know how to use it. I saw someone missing at 7 yards!

The most entertainment you can have is sitting at a busy intersection during heavy snowfall.

Corn syrup, corn syrup, corn syrup, corn syrup, corn syrup, corn syrup, corn syrup.

My German trip:

Things I learned while in Bavaria. It is totally normal to buy alcohol in a gas station, but forbidden in casinos. Do not wave at every Bavarian you see, unless it's the waiter, in which case even a signal flare may not be sufficient. The shops selling large dusty boulders are in fact bakeries, with sufficient arm strength one can learn to consume these curious objects. Never fix a man's tractor unless you wish to be drowned in beer.

PHILOSOPHY

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have you tried a mince and cheese pie? Well? Have you?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
USA: I have not couch surfed here yet, I can't wait to meet my first 'merican host!

Germany:

So far, great! Have been doing it offline until now. Managed to fix a tractor for my last host, now he can get wood for winter. Slightly proud of myself!

Update, still awesome! I love the reactions I get to my cooking, I never thought I'd be teaching Europeans how to fry an egg, but it's happened! I've made so many friends, and I can't wait to meet them all again one day.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Squirrels and snowflakes, two things we don't have in New Zealand. Both fill me with a childish joy, one makes me reach for my nuts.
