CURRENT MISSION

I am road tripping around with my friend Kayla.

ABOUT ME

Currently living in Portland, just graduated from Epicodus, a vocational school for programmers. I have travelled all around the world with and without friends, learning about different cultures and histories in search of a new adventure and knowledge through experience. Occasionally, I go back home to Boulder, CO to work at a super fun Japanese Restaurant and save some money while crashing in my Mom's basement. I am a karaoke enthusiast, my go-to songs are usually TLC's, "No Scrubs" Blondie's, "Heart of Glass", or Tina Turner's, "I wanna Dance With Somebody." I have pipe dreams of going to grad school in Australia next year, but for now I'm looking to migrate to the West Coast for the winter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to experience new cities and cultures from a locals perspective. I am not only trying to stay on your couch, but I'm looking to make a connection with like-minded kids trying to make it in the USA.

Interests

I like drawing people and riding my bike. I love sushi and swimming in the ocean. I love going out for drinks and dancing while making new friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer you lovely hosts: friendship and super good vibes. I'm always keen to cook a tasty stir-fry or a brekkie sandwich. I can also offer you booze, dance parties and dish washing. I will treat you and your house with respect and make you smile!

P.S. I can teach you how the kids say cheers in Korea
