About Me

What's up my fellow CouchSurfers? I stepped back from hosting during Covid and i forgot to turn off my accepting guest so i ruined my response rate hahaha. Just getting back into the app bow in Aug 2023.

l enjoy conversations on any subject, and I am yearning to learn whatever you have to teach.

I grew up in a high desert biome, which make me love water in all forms.

I am pretty laid back person who is driven by an unsatisfied curiosity that pushes me to learn everything i can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I actually feel safer staying with a CS host than in a hostel. My coolest memories have come from a CS meet up or host. I find that most of the people on here are down to earth and awesome!

Interests

-Playing guitar with other people. I am not a great musician, but i can add to a jam session. If you have an instruement bring it!!!

-Meeting new people, I think that everyone has something to teach, and i am here to learn

-Snowboarding, Nothing beats a powder day

-Super Smash Bros Melee, all time favorite video game

-Waterpolo!

-Lucid Dreaming, you're going to be asleep anyway... might as well learn a little about yourself

-Cooking, i'm always down to learn a new recipe, and cook with someone new

-jujitsu, i am the whitest of white belts

-gardening, i find pruning and tending to my plants very theraputic
