I am an aspiring gardener, woodworker and cook. I love sharing skills I have acquired and learning new ones. In my spare time I try to express myself through written word, crafts and cooking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that the best way to explore a country is through the local inhabitants. I want to connect with interesting people who enjoy sharing their experiences with others. The best experiences I have had while traveling always occur when I meet locals. I want to continue meeting interesting people when I am in unfamiliar and beautiful places. Couch surfing seems like the best way to do that!

Interests

I love cooking, gardening and creating useful things. Writing is my main form of expression, but I also enjoy drawing. I have been developing my woodworking skills and I hope to continue doing so.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have had the privilege of traveling through Southern Europe with my family.

During my most recent trip to Italy, I helped my host remodel a 500 year old house and set up for a capoeira camp.

Recently, I went skydiving! The jump was from 5,000 meters and was exhilarating and terrifying all in one. I would recommend it to everyone!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach my simple fermentation techniques and woodworking skills! I also can share recipes I have learned since I started cooking.

I would love to learn more about gardening, woodworking and cooking. There are so many styles and I want to learn as many as I can!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I enjoy cleaning, cooking and fixing things. I also enjoy sharing my past experiences and giving any advice I can.

Overall, I am a fast learner and am willing to try new things, even if they scare me!
