CURRENT MISSION

To learn through experience and creation

ABOUT ME

I love travel and the personal growth it fosters. I wouldn't be the person I am without it, and thus I love passing on the hospitality I've received on the road!

PHILOSOPHY

life is to be enjoyed, and the world is to be explored, but, ultimately, what we create and how we relate is what makes us human.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By offering a room, food (and coffee!) and an insider's guide to the north side of Seattle!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Most of my couchsurfing experience hasn't come through this site, but through meeting individuals personally. I'm a Barista at Kuma Coffee in Wallingford, and there have been multiple travelers who've wandered in to my shop and wound up surfing my couch. So come on in, have a cup and a conversation and enjoy everything Seattle (and Washington) have to offer!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you love coffee I will teach you how to love it even more. If you like beer we can brew a batch together (and drink some thats already brewed). And if you like food we will cook together, simply using quality seasonal produce I get from the farmer's market (where I work on Wednesdays!)
