ABOUT ME
I'm outgoing and enjoy a good time! That being said, my description of a good time is really broad, generally I just go with what my friends want to do, and I'm always up for trying something new, or exploring; So couch surfing is amazing to me, because I get to have fun in new ways with new people!
I strongly believe in Doing to others as you would have them do to you!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am currently renting somewhere, but they are open to the idea of a couchsurfer sometimes :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have surfed, have yet to host as I have not had a place of my own to host yet. While living in Europe I used couchsurfing often! I had the pleasure of staying with some really amazing people in Prague, Munich, the Italian alps, Bulgaria, ect. I've loved the times I've couch-surfed because I Love meeting the amazing people that couchsurfing hosting tends to bring in, they are always so kind, helpful and willing, and I'm always shocked by how much time they give to teach and show me their home towns <3

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
No idea where to start. My dad is a missionary who travels the world to build Ropes Courses and games to bring people together. I have got to travel with him, along with travel on my own, and nothing could be better then those experiences! I have been to over 24 countries, enjoying hiking, exploring and meeting new people all over.
I will say my 11 mile hike threw the Amazon rain forest is most likely one memory I will never forget! Slipping and falling, snakes, beautiful hidden castles, then a wonderful island boat ride earned at the end. I also had the pleasure in 2022 to Hike the GR-15 with my mother for 15 days straight. Hiking the French, Italian and Swiss alps all in that time was absolutely jaw draping!
Teach, Learn, Share
Happy to teach pickleball or tennis to anyone anytime! Would love to learn German, but so far I am no good at it. I would love to eventually share my apartment to visitors, but currently am in the moving process and unable to.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I have an office room I convert to a guest room (large comfy air-mattress) when people come to stay. Guest are welcome to make themselves at home and welcome to join me on any activities I'm doing. I also love to show people around where I live in Kirkland and Seattle if they are looking for specific adventures! I have a beautiful 4 year old puppy who loves new people and will try to cuddle and kiss you if you give her the time of day :) We also have a large backyard that I have had friends camp in when they wanted an "outdoor stay" :)
