ABOUT ME

I love to read and write and practice yoga and play music and eat vegetarian food. I want to travel again in New Zealand sometime.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I get an actual honest-to-God stable living adress, I'd love to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I drove across the US almost two years ago and stayed with Couchsurfers in Amarillo and Flagstaff. I had a great time. Later, I surfed across Slovenia and the experiences I had with hosts filled me with a rare and awesome joy.
