I'm genuine, curious, kind, open, interesting and interested, and look for the same in others. By day I design the bike lanes you ride in and the sidewalks you walk on, and after work I go out and play on aerial trapeze and silks. But my real hobby is learning as much as I can about this wacky world and having great conversations about it with great people!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've been lucky enough to travel a lot, and now I'd like to share this beautiful city I love with others while meeting interesting folks. Come hang out with my cat Winnie and me in Portland!
