Hello! Im new to the couchsurfing community but excited to meet some local folks and make some new friends!

Originally from New York City, I’ve been living in Colorado for the past few years, working as a climbing instructor for kids and developing my artwork (I am an oil painter). I enjoy being around kids and in the states I work as a nanny and babysitter. I’m a rock climber and I love being outside in whatever way I can — climbing, painting en plein air, camping and hiking.

I’m a super mellow guest, I don’t party much and I enjoy having a full day to adventure so I don’t like to stay up too late! I’m neat and tidy and can hang out and socialize if you’re around, but I’m also pretty independent so I don’t mind doing things solo.

You can check out my artwork on my IG (@thepaintedlandscape) or my website: ClarissaFortier.com.
