Hello world! I'm Emily and I'm looking to surf some couches! I live in Santa Cruz, CA and am currently working at an awesome local brewery. When I'm not handling craft brews, I'm usually out hiking around, running, eating (anything and everything), sipping coffee and hanging out with friends. I'm in the process of learning to surf and I dabble in rock climbing, I'd be stoked to find a belaying partner! I'm very easygoing, a tad sarcastic and witty, I hope we vibe! Thanks for checking out my profile!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel as cheaply as possible. I'm young(ish) and looking for an adventure rather than a paycheck. I want to stay with awesome locals, because they can give me better insight on what to do and see than any "tourist information center" and its a great way to meet new people while traveling!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Toured the coast of the south island of New Zealand on my road bike. (Thank you WarmShowers!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn to speak Spanish well, I'm a bit rusty. I'd be interested in sharing travel stories, and just any exciting stories in general with fellow couch surfers.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can contribute to household duties. I can come bearing drinks and stories. Just ask!
