About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Mountains and Sea!!

ABOUT ME

I like to play and I like to ponder. I play in organized ways (ultimate frisbee, rock climbing, dancing) and in spontaneous ways (jedi wrestling, free-style walking, kartwheels and handstands, improv dance). I like novels that make me understand the world and people in a new way - and I like talking about books with people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've met many couch surfers passing through friends' houses, but I haven't been able to host anyone yet. I look forward to sharing food and thought with other travelers - and making their trips a little bit cheaper and more interesting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My friends in grad school were frequently hosting couch surfers. Now that I'm in an apartment with space to do so, I welcome all who need a place to stay.

Interests

Ultimate Frisbee, hiking, climbing, trekking, cooking, reading novels, discovering new music, international politics, philosophy and religion.
