Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had some of the most positive travel experiences couch-surfing and love to learn about new places through the eyes of the people that know them best! Though I have wanted to host, a down-sized living arrangement and our upcoming expedition to Europe has made this a little difficult. I'm looking forward to one day being able to host myself. In the meantime, I love to share what I have learned, what I love with all the wonderful hosts out there!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music- afrobeat, jazz, funk, dance, rock, classical

Movies - lots and lots of favorites... Everything from 80s movies to all sorts of foreign films...

Ask me :)
I run a book club in Denver called The Mile High Bibliophiles and we're currently reading "The Master and Margarita" by Mikhail Bulgakov. It's. Amazing. Do yourself a solid and pick it up.
