Hello!

I have spent the last two years traveling the world making wine. I have been lucky enough to have lived and worked in New Zealand and Australia while stopping home in Napa for the other part of the year. I have recently moved back home to Napa and plan to be here for the next few years. Although living abroad must come to a end at the present moment, I will be sure to continue traveling stateside and internationally as much as possible.

I grew up in Portland, Oregon and went to San Francisco, California for school. My whole life I was fortunate to travel all over the world with my family and by myself and I hope to continue to do so in the coming years. Currently I am working towards becoming a winemaker, which is why I am traveling all over the world to learn the different styles and philosophies of winemaking. In my spare time I spend my time cooking, baking, hiking , diving, having good conversations, having a cold beer or a glass of wine and truly making the most out of each day. I consider myself to be very extroverted and love hearing other's life stories.

As I guest I promise to be respectful of your home and of your time! My philosophy is to travel through life with kindness, patience, and empathy for others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Many of my friends Couchsurf and have had wonderful experiences from the community. I often solo travel and enjoy meeting new people from all over the world to share stories with and learn from. I think using couchsurfing to connecting with those around the world is a fantastic way to travel and to make deep connections with those who you may otherwise never meet.
