About Me

CURRENT MISSION

help out brothers and sisters!

ABOUT ME

I was born in Tulsa, grew up and went to school. I work at High Gravity Home Brewing Supplies. I get to talk about beer all day! and make my own YUM! I'm also the beer girl at Midtown Liquor, where you can find Tulsa's best beer selection. Some days, I'll sit on my porch and pick me a tune on my banjo or guitar. I can knit a mean scarf. I like to ride my bicycle and get into trouble. I like to read. I like to travel, and learn other languages. My favorite thing about living in Tulsa is the fantastic people I've met. My friends are the best bunch of people alive, and I just keep adding to them.

PHILOSOPHY

Never. Ever. drink from a Ritazza coffee machine. Even if you are desperate.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to open my house to you. I share what I've got, even if its just a jar of pickles and some 3.2 beer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My best friend, The crown princess Ariel Weaver, told me about this couch surfing business. Every time she had someone on her couch I met some great people from some neat places. I don't have much money to travel, so I figure the world can come to me. I have hosted some precious, precious, people who will be in my heart forever. The only thing I hate about couchsurfers is that they always leave you!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in a monastery in France called Taize for one week. I meet some great kids from Germany, Poland, France, England, Portugal, and EVERYWHERE. Once I hulahooped with FIVE hula hoops!
It's also quite a site to watch my ferret fight my six-toed cat.
