I'm a Washington State native who loves to explore and take spontaneous trips. Things that make me happy include spending time with friends and family, the outdoors, food and cooking, creating, coffee, and wine.

I am currently enjoying some down time after working and/or going to school my whole life. I will be visiting Vietnam for two weeks in November 2016, and Germany, Netherlands, France, Belgium, and Denmark for three weeks in December. I'd love to meet up!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to make connections and see the world from a different perspective. I prefer to get to know locals and other travelers rather than stay in an isolated hotel room.
