Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

my family were, at one time, professional couchsurfists. we used to housesit old houses in the winter when it was too cold to travel and keep people company. we also house people pretty often. a lot of my friends refer to my house as a "halfway home"- we house some of my mates while they're moving out and trying to figure out where they want to live. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i saw someone save someone's life. it's truly impacted me and made me value life so much more, and want to devote myself to the wellbeing of others.

Teach, Learn, Share

a few chords on the ukulele, sewing, design, photography, ballet, how to wash dishes real good, and too many vegetarian dishes.

i'd love to learn some more instruments, or other quirky little things.
