Hello I'm Colleen. I am an artist/designer/craftsman working in a variety of mediums including painting, drawings, metal work, wood working, 3D printing, weaving, and knitting. In addition to creating, I love to get outdoors; hiking and camping. I am hoping to do long term backpacking trips next year.
My finance, Christoph, may join me on upcoming travels. He is a musician and electrician. We are currently in the process of converting a cargo van for #vanlife travels. We hope to settle in USA or Germany with an organic farm and creative studios.
You will find we are both kind, easy going, and open minded people.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am new to international travel in general. I have finished college and worked for a few years now and I realize that I need to travel to get a bigger perspective on the world and experience new cultures and ways of living. I am choosing to couch surf to meet locals of country/city to hopefully guide me to experiences that normal tourists would not have access to. Also hoping to meet some cool and inspiring people and fellow artists.
