I'm an outgoing and optimistic person who enjoys making new friends, sharing experiences, exploring the world and taking advantage of opportunity. I love to hear stories of adventure. I believe in living healthily and seeking sunshine whenever possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hosted an Australian couple for 2 nights back in August, after I randomly met them at a music festival in California. They were such a pleasure to have and we became good friends. After learning about Couchsurfing from them, I decided to try it out for myself.

Since then I've stayed with several hosts throughout Europe and have had excellent experiences every time! If any of my hosts were to stop by California, I'd be thrilled at the chance to host them myself and show them the beautiful place I call home.

Interests

Much of my time is spent outdoors, in nature. I enjoy hiking, travel (obviously) and photography. I love to meet with new people and see the world through their eyes. I'm a graphic designer and love design, art and culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled through the Norwegian countryside, shuttled my way to the base of a giant fjord, and hiked 22K to Trolltunga Rock (the troll's tongue). This giant rock formation juts out 2300ft over the fjord - standing out at the tip of the troll's tongue was one of the most exhilarating and truly rewarding experiences of my life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Positivity, sense of humor, patience, helpfulness. I'm a great listener, I love to learn about people and their passions. My biggest goal with couchsurfing is to gain a real sense of the culture wherever I'm staying. I seek passionate people wherever I travel!
