CURRENT MISSION

Planning a trip to the Greek Isles with my cousins Mandy and Kelly

ABOUT ME

My old roommate/best friend Liz and I started hosting couchsurfers back in '09. We had an amazing time hosting surfers from all over the world, but I've yet to couchsurf myself!

PHILOSOPHY

C'est la vie! (Esp-when things go wrong while traveling ;) )
