I am re-dedicating myself to traveling and exploring the world and it's people. My hobbies are reading, writing (creative non-fiction and poetry), music (indie rock, acoustic, folk, and so much more), DOGS, and learning about people and their experiences.

I currently run an airBnB out of my house as I have several private bedrooms. However when I'm not fully booked I would love the opportunity to host couch-surfers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and enabling others to explore the world and build community.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In December I took a trip to Alaska to dogsled with an Iditarod winning team. It had been on my bucket list since I was 8 years old, and it was everything I was hoping it would be. And it was cold too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach about my work (discovering new mobile retail experiences), and about writing and literature. I also garden and practice mindfulness/meditation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories! Curiousity! Laughter! and I can cook too.
