CURRENT MISSION
Explore with an open mind.

I am originally from Brunswick, Maine- a large coastal town and have lived in the city of Portland, Maine for about 6 years as well. Seeing new things, meeting new people and contributing / experiencing new communities are things that define me currently. As a person, I am funny, creative, insightful, patient, open minded, curious, hard working and unique.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Seems like a more effective way to truly experience new places.
