I moved from Hawaii to Portland!

CURRENT MISSION

I am here to explore the great Oregon outdoors

ABOUT ME

I am a young professional in the IT world. I have a flexible schedule and some space to share. I really enjoy meeting people, sharing experiences, and exploring. Life is too short not to travel and share the wealth!

I am all about the view. I love going to a spot few go see, hear, and taste the world around me. Some of the most beautiful places in the world are the hardest to get to.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be awesome to everyone I meet, and I hope that everyone will be excellent to each other. Overall, empathy is key.

I will always take the road less trailed. Go left when everyone is going right. But I also realize that sometimes there is a good reason everyone is turning right.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can show you around a bit, go to some of the lesser known hikes. Also go to some of the lesser known eating spots

I will want to show you some of the best views, so be prepared!

If you like to go out, I can show some of the best local places to eat, drink, and be merry at.

Also, depending on how busy I am, I could drive/drop you off to a few places.

Bonus if you can help me cook!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so good, just started hosting and I am having a blast! Help me build my repertoire!
