CURRENT MISSION

Learn, learn, learn... Love, love, love... Laugh, travel, eat, dance :).

ABOUT ME

I have taken a year off to travel and work around Armenia and Europe. I have had some amazing experiences recently - WWOOFing on a farm in south africa, volunteering with some very smart and creative kids in Armenia, and experiencing the loving community of Taize in France. I am feeling grateful lately. Grateful for all these opportunities I had, all the people I met, and all the amazing places I know are still out there to be explored.

I am going back to university in the fall to finish up my studies in the Classics and Philosophy. I'm not sure what's next - but whatever it is I hope I keep learning. They say the more you learn, the less you know. I could be a satisfied student all my life, because it's true - there is always so much more to learn !

I have a lot to learn about myself too so this is hard to write.

I adore new people, cultures, and places and learning from them all. But I also love my old friends, my family, and home. I'm always hoping I don't gain one at the expense of the other.

I do my best to ride the waves of life when they come along, and try not to take life too seriously :p.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe all people are inherently good. Trust people, and they will trust you back.

We are more similar than we think - you & I.

Live and learn. No regrets, please. Don't waste our one precious, wild life :).

Don't take life so seriously.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I got my CS profile ages ago after the urgings of a friend, but it took me foerever to actually start participating (due to a lack of need, not interest).

I finally attended several CS gatherings and meetings earlier this year when I lived in Armenia, and I just started actually using it to surf (around Europe :] ), and attend epic metro parties ;).

I'll be traveling for awhile more, but hope to be able to offer a couch - or at least coffee and pointers around my town - soon. This fall.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been blown away by all my couch surfing experiences thus far. They exceed my expectations every time and remind me how awesome people can be !

音乐、电影和书籍

The Breakfast Club, Grease, The Bourne Identity, The Matrix, Inception, Ever After... more that I can't think of right now probably.

I'm a sucker for the timeless cassics in music - Beatles, Bob Marley, Bob Dylan, The Police. Some classical (Bach especially). And almost all folk music. The Once soundtrack. Sarah maclachlan, Tracy Chapman, Jason Mraz, Iron & Wine, some John Mayer, State Radio.

(Also - Am obsessed with good live music. On the streets, in coffee shops, in a church, small concerts...around a camp fire :). It takes my breathe away every time.)

Books are good. The Shadow of the Wind, The Pearl, Dante's Divine Comedio, Chaucer.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Vienna City Marathon. It is awe-inspiring what the human body - even the very young and very old, worn human body - is capable of.

教，学，和分享

I'm not sure I can claim to be an expert at anything, except maybe listening. I'm here if you need or want a place to unload your stories, joys, thoughts, troubles.

Although I'm much worse at talking than listening, I can also share mine ;).

I make mediocre coffee, and good tea. Will almost always be up for a a run or a walk with you.
