Lover of people, seeker of cozy nooks and pretty places. Also FOOOOOD.

Have been traveling full time (more or less) since early 2016 and I often feel like I completely suck at it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I usually travel on my own, but I dig people, and this is one of the easiest way to meet them. Gets depressing eating all your meals alone, y'all.

Interests

I used to work a lot, but now I only do things I love, and I've found a way to get paid for it AND travel. I am both lucky and resourceful.

Things I love: theater, opera, weird public art, and noshy gatherings with interesting people. Avid knitter, city cyclist, writer, graphic designer, organizer of things.

Music, Movies, and Books

- Love movies where someone dies and it's real sad.
- Love books that make me think or make me scared.
- Love music with great singers. Currently trying to figure out how to meet and marry Martin Sexton.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Paragliding and mushroom-picking in Austria, WTF. http://nostrangersisay.com/europe/day-1-salzburg-schmalzburg/

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love it if someone could teach me how to like beer.
