ABOUT ME

I like to make stuff, play outside, read books, ride bikes, grow food, take pictures, play music and enjoy the company of good people. I get paid to hangout with preschoolers all day. I can't complain.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just surfing for now, but hopefully when I return home from travels in the fall I will have a couch to offer :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far, but I'm hoping to surf during travels in Iceland next month!

Interests

making and appreciating art, camping, dog snuggling, road trips, old photographs, biking, woodworking, board games, cooking + baking (pretty much just food in general), old time country music, thrift store treasure hunting, taking pictures, veggie gardening, adventuring outside, lounging at the river, traveling, reading, experiencing live music, and doing nothing in particular in the company of good people.
