CURRENTLY: En route to New Zealand!
*** Thanks everyone for PMing me to hang out in LA, but I'm not there right now - Maybe when/if I come back, or you can always meet me on the road!***

CURRENT MISSION:
Living a life I love full of exploring, experiencing, and connecting. Traveling Australia for the first time by myself and happy to meet new friends!

ABOUT ME:
Up to try practically anything. I'm pretty easy-going/open-minded and can be described as voracious when it comes to learning/reading/listening/playing/sitting/all-of-it. Though I'm not much of the partying type, I'm not opposed to the idea. I enjoy sharing stories, adventures, and space the most.

CURRENTLY MISSING: Carney's Chili Cheese Burgers

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's an amazing way to get to know where you are and who you're there with. And a wonderful way to meet people who might become friends.

I also happen to love meeting new people + adventures, Couchsurfing makes sure both happen. Currently looking for couches/friends in Australia, but can't wait to host again once I settle.

movies/directors -
Tarsem Singh, Star Wars, It Happened One Night, Vertigo/Hitchcock...

writers -
Tolkien, Nabokov, Kawabata, Vonnegut, Dumas...

games -
Psychonauts, Little Big Planet, Left 4 Dead (cause it's the only first person shooter I'm not cripplingly awful at)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For the moment, nothing compares to holding my baby nephew, Jacob. Amazing is an understatement.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm great at sharing (I'd hate to say 'teaching') some pretty basic guitar, book thoughts & suggestions, yoga, recipes, CPR tips - because who doesn't need those, love for food, good company.

What I Can Share with Hosts

cooking - it may be the same thing over and over, but it'll be tasty, I promise.
cleaning/tidying - I daresay it's a super power of mine and something I'm happy to help with.

Good vibes & optimism. :)
