Traveler, cyclist, writer, currently residing in Charleston. I have a passion for riding my bike to places most people drive their cars and collecting stories along the way. My plan is to see all of the US from the saddle of my bike. And then beyond!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Bicycle touring! I have benefitted greatly from the kindness of strangers as they open their space up to my stinky, spandex-clad self and didn't question the need for a safe place to stow my bike/gear. I want to return the favor! I love sharing stories from travels. I can't guarantee a well-cooked meal, but I can guarantee beer and conversation!
