Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am about to embark on a free-form trip with my friend, Katherine. We are starting in Olympia, Washington and letting our travels take us from there. I am looking forward to the adventure and to reaching out of my comfort zone, but am at heart a home-body who is looking for comfy, warm, and welcoming places to stay the night. Don't be freaked cause I like to sleep with a pillow on my head.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love kid's books and novels that are like going on vacation. Always looking for books and music by badass women. Let's dance!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Tell me your stories! I love to cook and am a great listener. I want to absorb everything and never stop learning, so tell me anything. I make art and am always open to an art exchange or a collaborative drawing. If you are feeling adventurous and have a blank wall, door, or piece of furniture or plywood lying around, I'd love to paint it! I can draw your living room for you! Let's do a puzzle together?
