PHILOSOPHY

I'm still working on it. Ask me at the end of my doctorate!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In the past I have had an amazing time in Benton Harbor, MI with Kelli and Cliff Reppart - a couple of days turned into a month and I didn't want to leave. Then there was Maximus (not his real name!) in Birmingham, UK who kindly put me up when I was up there for a conference. He cooked me some wonderful gnocchi...
