About Me

I'm your fairly typical Cackalacky Millennial. If you don't know what that is, come find out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling feeds my soul. I want to be that southern soul food for someone looking to explore NC, and in return I hope karma helps me out on my delicious adventures.

  • dogs
  • dining

  • drinking
  • gardening
  • traveling

Music, Movies, and Books

I am in love with Maya Angelou, her words sooth and entice my spirit. Though Maya reigns supreme I do enjoy a vast array of literary genres and I'm always up for recommendations!

I'm game for any type of music except heavy metal or screamo, I just can't dig it.

The Sound of Music is the movie I have seen most in my life time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I changed career paths and I've never looked back.

Teach, Learn, Share

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.
Maya Angelou

Independence is a heady draught, and if you drink it in your youth, it can have the same effect on the brain as young wine does. It does not matter that its taste is not always appealing. It is addictive and with each drink you want more.
Maya Angelou

My mother said I must always be intolerant of ignorance but understanding of illiteracy. That some people, unable to go to school, were more educated and more intelligent than college professors.
Maya Angelou

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live in a great house in a neighborhood adjacent to downtown Durham. The house is quite charming as it's covered with flora and the back garden is a great space for relaxing and sharing laughs. The interior has two comfy couches or you could rest on a blow up mattress that can be set up in a spare room. You are welcome to use the kitchen as laundry as well. The space is also shared with my roommate and lovely sweet dog!
