CURRENT MISSION

The unexamined life is not worth living.

ABOUT ME

After three years of travel and volunteering, I've come to Portland to put some roots in the ground and invest in a community. Getting from wherever I was to where I am now - emotionally, intellectually, geographically - has been an interesting process, every minute of which has been well worth it.

PHILOSOPHY

Love and be loved.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm just getting settled in Portland and look forward to hangin' with the couchsurfing crowd here! I surf occasionally, and I enjoy getting together with local surfers to exchange stories. I've heard some incredible ones.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The people I've met are incredibly genuine, trusting, bright, and adventurous. Couchsurfing provides a venue for profoundly similar people - who would have likely never met otherwise - to connect and share, which is amazing!

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Let's just say I have a special eye for the everyday and the banal; those things have the most incredible beauty.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

My experience in Tanzania: I'd love to share about it. Tell you what I saw. Give you a crash course in Kiswahili. I'd also love to hear about your travels and how you have interacted with the world around you.
