About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to learn all that I can about farming

ABOUT ME

Daily life is mainly working in the restaurant and hitting the river! Sweet sweet summer! I also love foraging and late nights.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, I surf, and I love going to events and meeting new people, I've made so many amazing friends through CS and I am extremely grateful to this community! Also, it's how I met my love so that was pretty neat. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Pub nights, dinners, concerts, beaches, gambling, birthdays, living in cars, hitching, hiking, hosting, surfing, rock climbing, log rolling, wandering...

Interests

I love to see live music and dancing makes me the happiest. I always want to see and experience new places and meet new people. Everyone has something to teach and something to learn. I love learning new ways to live simply; I will go into any thrift store anytime. I love watching plants grow and one of my biggest desires is to learn to grow food better and hopefully start my own farm someday. I like good beer, good gin, and good conversation. I like riding bikes, chocolate milk, lakes, rivers, creeks, forests and hiking through all of them! I LOVE FOOD and would love to cook for you! And of course, anything with avocado on it!

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch more documentaries than anything else on my own but I love most genres, except horror. All time favorite is probably True Romance by Quentin Tarantino

Favorite books are the ones that teach me something, anything. And true stories about the amazing things people have done and seen in their lives never get old.

Favorite music is always changing, whatever sounds good in my ears! No matter where my taste goes, live music of any kind blows everything out of the water, you cannot beat that energy!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just made a pretty amazing sandwich. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to cook my favorite dishes, and all that I am learning about wild food as I go. I would love to learn how to cook new dishes and anything you know about living simply and frugally.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love all things food. I would be happy to help you grow it, cook it, and of course, eat it!
