Hi there! I'm an optimist, adventurer, hiker, reader, painter, lover of lost causes, seeker of beauty and plant enthusiast. Into being present and grateful for each moment. Believer in human connections. Let's hang out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

People! I love meeting new people and sharing worlds and ideas. I've been a couchsurfing member for a while, but am really trying to become an active host now that I actually have a couch in my apartment.

Interests

I feel strongly that any activity can be improved by doing it outside, so you can pretty much always find me exploring the outdoors. I like arguing about politics and learning about new perspectives. And I'm interested in creating just about anything. Oh and I love to dance!

Music, Movies, and Books

Tame Impala, Fleetwood Mac, Typhoon, The Shins, Youth Lagoon, Wilco, Leon Bridges, Devendra Banhart. But I like to dance to just about anything and enjoy swapping music with people.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Watership Down, 1984, Dracula, with some trashy young adult fiction sprinkled in there.

Garden State, Moonrise Kingdom. Any documentary!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I backpacked through Patagonia; camping, hitchhiking, and climbing to my heart's content!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook, and I'm always happy to cook together/share a bottle of wine!

I like to sew clothes, and can always patch up a pair of your travel-worn pants.

I enjoy learning about new people & places. I am always looking to learn new things, teach me anything!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Sincere human connections and meaningful experiences. And wine.
