Profile Summary

i was born a tiger, and i still have my fangs. i am a strange hybrid of many countries and cultures, and i have been on the road for a long, long time now, almost always hitchhiking. i'm expressive, even with my mouth shut.i appreciate good conversationalists and wild dance partners. je suis très petite, très souple, et très fort.i tend to collect things, transport them for a while, and deposit them in new places. riding bicycles is one of my favorite things- ever. i love doing, making, building, creating, and taking apart all types of objects and ideas.i'm prey to daydreaming and spells of sleeplessness. i'm high-energy and low-matenience. i was vegan before the word vegan was used to describe veganism... but, i eat honey. fuck the rules.{by the way, i had been much more active on CouchSurfing in the past, so you can also take a look at my CS profile: www.couchsurfing.com/amylin}
