Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to couchsurf! I plan to make a trip every year or two, and I will always consider couchsurfing when planning. I live in a great house with great friends, and we're open to having couchsurfers come stay with us.

Interests

In no logical order... riding my bike, prefer to wonder when walking through towns and cities, hiking, snowboarding, camping, traveling, beautiful historic or just old buildings, photography, eating delicious food, having a picnic/bbq, making popcorn, watching movies via projector, listening to music, dancing to music, singing to music, drumming, nerding out to excel (but failing at making my computer work), playing in machine shops, garage sales, sustainable liv'n, OREGON, etc.
