Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I can't sit still, so I'm always traveling to a new country or state to visit friends and family! Eventually, I'll have a couch I can call my own, but until then, just bookmark me and remind me to settle down one day;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to say hello in a few different languages. Or I can teach you a few words of Russian, though with an American accent.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can clean up the kitchen, whip up a basic meal (ok, i can make you a sandwich!), or simply share stories over a brew. Also, I can take a good picture:)
