ABOUT ME

I'm 30 years old. I play Roller Derby for Pioneer Valley Roller Derby's A-Team Western Mass Destruction. I like to ride my bike spring-fall :-). Hike whenever the woods is calling, hang out on the porch with friends and drinks, make-up new lyrics to well known tunes. live. love & laugh.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have used couchsurfing once with a few friends of mine on our trip back East from a year of Volunteer service with AmeriCorps NCCC. The only leg of our trip we didn't have someone we knew to stay with was around Zion. Great experience, felt welcomed and it was nice to have a place that felt like home and not feel like a tourist.
