About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having fun, living life to the fullest.

ABOUT ME

I consider myself a fun loving and laid back person. I enjoy meeting new people, learning their cultures and sharing experiences.

Just moved here after living in South Carolina for a year. Although I prefer it up here, I do miss my Low Country cooking. Currently undergoing serious shrimp and grits and she crab soup withdrawals

Love going places and trying new activities, eating unfamiliar foods, and experiencing different cultures.

I would love to host you!

PHILOSOPHY

Watch your actions, for they become habits. Watch your habits, for they become character. Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Looking forward to exploring new places with other CSers and hosting to show how great the Pacific Northwest is!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love Couch Surfing! I look forward to all the opportunities that this has to offer.

I have been hosting Couchsurfers for about two years, so I guess I am experienced on the hosting side. I haven't had the time to surf as much as I would like. I'm always looking for opportunities to travel and surf.
