About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet.

ABOUT ME

Hey there! My name is Katherine and I used to hitchhike and travel Greyhound a lot. I consider El Paso, TX my hometown though I currently live in Florida. I have not CS’d in a while due to now-ex partners who did not like to travel this way. I am a commercial diver, and though it takes me away from home often, it gives me good stories for you! I have a deaf ACD/GerShep mix dog named Puck, and we do sheep herding when I’m not missing him terribly. I love dancing to disco and house, but like music of all sorts, a good cocktail, great food (vegetarian/vegan), and a fine adventure. Vaxxed and boosted. I’m very gay, but you don’t need to be. I’d love to buy you a drink and wash the dishes. Cheers!

PHILOSOPHY

Just ask me when you meet me. I'm sure we'll have a lovely conversation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've had this profile for a while but haven't really utilised it to its full potential. I used to just hitchhike around or grab the bus, and for places to stay, all I’d need was a few dollars and a bar. I’m older now, and have been travelling with partners that don’t vibe with CS for years, but am finally solo after a long time and can get back to how I like to travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all music. Love disco, cumbias, the blues, honky tonk, metal….

I like foreign films, films that are dark and poignant, documentaries. But I’m really busy so I just work off a list of water-related movies.

I love the feel of a book, but I just got a kindle paperwhite and it’s so handy! Currently reading The Picture of Dorian Gray.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I pulled a mortgage out of my backpack.

I like to rescue tired bees with sugar water.

I’ve also dived to 180 ft.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to make paper. I can cook. I will definitely clean. And I’d love to learn anything you want to teach me!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Let’s find out what we have in common! I may be out of practice, but I have lots of good stories, and now I have beer money, ha. Guaranteed you will have to arm wrestle me to keep me from doing the dishes or something as a small token of my appreciation.

Countries I’ve Lived In
