Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To expand my horizons and meet new people.
ABOUT ME
I'm a midwest native, a writer, an artist, DIY enthusiast, minimalist, adventure seeker, and casual cyclist. Jack of all trades, master of none.
PHILOSOPHY
Approach everything with an open heart and mind. Be kind, especially to yourself. Make things, don't buy them.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now, I'd like to surf and meet people. Once I get myself established, I'd love to host.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
A former roommate had a couchsurfing account a few years ago, and we hosted lots of surfers in our apartment, and later home. It was always fun, always interesting.
Interests
Reading! I love to write. Long, lazy bike rides are great. I try and make everything myself, or learn how to do it from someone who knows what they are doing :)
- writing
- diy
- reading

Books, I could go on forever.
