Hello! I am a light-hearted person searching for genuine people and authentic experiences. I am on the road currently traveling westward through the states for several weeks, guitar and journal in-hand.
I love cooking, hiking, conversations, going to local music shows, and a beer every now and then. 420 friendly, but would prefer no heavy drinking or other drug use. I value honesty and transparency most, so just be real with me!
I identify as queer and search for open-minded individuals that aren’t afraid of conversations relating to ideologies, environmentalism, natural medicine, diversity, and creativity.
I recently graduated with a BM in Music Therapy and in the fall will be working with children with disabilities and young adults with co-occurring mental health conditions and substance use histories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To me, traveling is so much about the connections you make with others while on the road. Journeying can be beautiful and eye-opening, but also lonesome at times, and I feel that meeting others in an authentic way is an important experience. I also would love to see the behind-the-scenes gems of your hometown and maybe even learn some trades!

Music, Movies, and Books

My passions are rooted in the arts—I love creating and creative people. My favorite authors include: Patti Smith, Langston Hughes, Jack Kerouac, and local poetry. My music ranges from Louis Armstrong to the B-52’s, and Black Sabbath to Girlpool. There’s hardly music I don’t enjoy, but I have a love for punk, folk, and acoustic styles (I also play several instruments).

Teach, Learn, Share

I’d love to share some musical knowledge and talk about music therapy—a beautiful alternative therapy that’s rooted in science and often mid perceived.

Learning is life, share with me your passions and knowledge on anything. Of special interest to me are natural medicine, geology, and mysticism.

I love communal living and am willing to share my thoughts, my resources, my travels, and my time to work alongside you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to exchange knowledge of any kind and am a quick learner! I wouldn’t mind cooking a meal, helping out in your garden, cleaning the house, or jamming/creating art together. I can be solitary at times, but often come out of my shell for the sake of creating.
