Recently arrived from the east coast and looking to meet new people! I lived in Maryland and DC for the last decade, where I studied art history & English lit and worked in a restaurant to support my travelling habit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just moved to Portland and had my housing situation fall through due to extenuating circumstances - so I'm trying to make the situation positive by looking at it as an excuse to make new friends. Also trying to not be homeless :)

Interests

Reading, taking absurdly long walks, really old art, beaches in the rain, cats, pb&js, Italian wine, and comfy sweaters. Amongst a multitude of other things I don't have the patience to list.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like lots of things but I despise having to list them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I backpacked through SE Asia for 3 months! Which is mostly amazing because the place is awesome, and less because it's actually impressive. Seriously, you should go.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make excellent pie and am really good at picking out wine.
