Hi there!

My name is Kristin. I love skateboarding and playing music. I have a passion for meeting new people and trying new things. I love to travel. I work as a Director for a non-profit skateboarding organization called Skate Like a Girl (www.skatelikeagirl.com)), and I am a professional skateboarder riding for Meow Skateboards, evo and a few other sponsors. I also play in a band called Skitch and run a small side project & zine called the Skate Witches (www.theskatewitches.com).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have participated as a host in the past, when I lived with a friend who was a part of couch surfing. I loved having new guests from all over the world stay and enjoy their time with us! Now, I am about to embark on a european vacation (September 15-30th), and I am looking to be hosted in a few cities, including Barcelona, Zurich, Milan, Marseille, Venice, and potentially other places too!
