About Me

Portlandy Portlander living in inner South East.

Web developer by day, urban explorer by night.

I enjoy making sure people have good experiences. If you're having fun, I'm having a BLAST.

NOTE: I'm sorry if I don't respond to your request - I tend to get quite a few.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently living alone, so I thought it would be fun to host people from out of town and show them my neighborhood. I really enjoy meeting new people and learning about their culture, experiences, and stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I really enjoy socializing, exploring, and showing people the coolest spots in Portland. Most of these places are bars, pubs, and restaurants - so be prepared to try some delicious cocktails, beers, and snacks. If that's not your game, I have plenty of other activities to introduce you to, which include (but are not limited to) radical hikes, sweet bike adventures, and throwing rocks at trees.

If you're more of a homebody, don't worry. I have an endless amount of movies, video games, and music we could partake in.

I can make pretty damn good scrambled eggs, but that's pretty much as far as my cooking abilities go.
