Hey, I'm Charlie! I was born and raised in Anacortes, hosting from the same house I grew up in. I live with my dad, my older sibling, and a friend from school. After graduating from UW, I came back home to save money on rent and get to work in the restaurant business, since I love everything about food and cooking. I'm saving up to go on a trip to China in late 2025, hopefully for a few months!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly because I have a concert in Vancouver tomorrow and no place to stay, so I want to browse and see who would be able to host me! But my family has always expressed the desire to host travelers and meet cool people who might find themselves in our beautiful town, and we've got the room for it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
