ABOUT ME

I like: grapefruits, dogs, mountains, whiskey, moths, writing, dancing, climbing, canoeing, surprises, beer, backpacking, the sea(s)

I dislike: cilantro, genetically.

Fall is my favorite season and 4th of July my favorite holiday.

PHILOSOPHY

Maximum fun and truly good adventures. Trying to remember as much of it as possible without getting too sentimental.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to live in a wonderful cooperative house- Finlandia- with 11 or 12 housemates. Over the years we hosted a pretty steady stream of couchsurfers and always had the best time learning their stories and sharing our own. When I went to Scandinavia local couches saved my butt on multiple occasions and I was so happy to make connections and explore using the site!
