I'm a designer, small business owner, and avid traveler.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I design & manufacture bikinis and other beachwear (Bare Native LLC), and travel often for business photoshoots or just to explore the world :) Couchsurfing is an awesome way to be able to afford to get around as a small business owner.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I know how to chop down a banana tree correctly, I'm interested in hearing stories from everyone I meet, and having intellectual discussions. I'm great at making friends with people's pets, and I could make you (or your daughter, girlfriend, best friend, mom, etc.) a custom/discounted bikini as soon as I'm back home!

Countries I’ve Visited
