I'm a writer, frequent traveller and experience junkie. I love good wine -- and bad wine works in a pinch.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really think the secret to happiness is in vulnerability and togetherness. I want to sit down and have a meal with you in your home and ask you what you're afraid of and what you love and why I should live in your town.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lost eighty pounds. I've been genuinely in love.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes. My technical expertise, if you can be an expert in this, is in literature/creative writing - but we can talk nutrition or wine or (limited) photography. I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My art, my heart, baked goods, hugs, cuddles with my dog Odin.
