Overview
About Me
I genuinely believe everyone has a story to tell. As a result, I'm very curious, sociable, and love getting to know people. Whether it's a different personality, a different perspective, or new experiences, I'm interested in hearing everyone's story! The world would be a better place if we all shared a piece of our lives with one another.
Travelling is something I'm always thinking about. I think it's super important to anyone's well-being to have a better sense of self in this world.
Nature, hiking, biking, running, live music, guitar, orchestras, soul, funk, indie-folk, 90s anything, food, basketball, bouldering... you name it - I'm in!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am living in Bangkok for the next couple of months and would like to meet more cool couchsurfers while I'm here! I have attended a couple of couch surfing meetups in my city, and have only heard great things about this community that I have yet to discover. My goal is show people the world that I live in by hosting travellers, and eventually visit those I have hosted around the world!
I think it takes a particular type of person to join the couchsurfing community. I respect the idea of letting someone stay at your place in exchange for their good vibes, and hopefully a new perspective. I also have this idea that there are good people in this world. I hope to meet all of you :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've hosted and coordinated Jam sessions in a variety of spaces (coffee shops, backyards, apartment spaces) featuring local amateur musicians in my hometown. So much talent in this world... all they need sometimes is a stage.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach - I've taught basketball to 8-10 year olds for 10 years. I can also teach very basic guitar/ukulele - patience required.
Learn - Anything you're passionate about!
Share - I like to share food/wine/beer. Cheers!
What I Can Share with Hosts
