Hi hi hi. I'm Lainey. I like to sing and act and write poems and paint with watercolors. I also really enjoy going on cool outside adventures and challenging hikes and paddle boarding, I think it's really important to live like we are part of the earth and not products of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

because people are really cool and neat and interesting and can teach you a lot and why wouldn't you want to be a part of that? Aren't we all just a little bit of everyone we've ever met?
