I'm an education consultant based in Seattle.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love Seattle and really enjoy showing it off to visitors. It's lots of fun hearing adventure stories from people from around the world who are traveling through.

** Sadly, my days as a host are drawing to a close, at least for the time being -- I'm prepping for a big adventure and will not have couch space available after February 12, 2016 **

Interests

Shape note singing (I'm kind of obsessed -- it's a great kind of early American music, all a capella with crazy four part harmonies)

• singing
• education
• cooking
• chocolate
• traveling
• drawing

Music, Movies, and Books

Recently read and loved: Shotgun Lovesongs, Fates and Furies, and A Tale For The Time Being. I've also got a big soft spot for YA fantasy and all kinds of dystopian fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've dislocated my shoulder in the Nile... twice!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Chocolate :)

Also, I like to cook and if I'm traveling, you're hosting, and it makes sense with schedules, I'd be happy to make a meal for you.
