The pictures really show most sides of who I am but one side it doesn't capture is that I really enjoy meeting people. CouchSurfing has been the best for that. I travel alone 25-50% of the year so use this site often. Why? Because I enjoy connecting with people and sharing stories and jokes.

In the past I have worked as a Christmas elf, ski instructor, touring musician, Barista, ultimately owned a cafe for 2.5 years (that was a lot of work!). Currently I host a podcast and travel the world as a “Liquid Chef” for brands, taking their ingredients and making tasty drinks.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I travel a lot for work and stay over the weekend occasionally. Love sites like AirBnB, but I also use CouchSurfing to grab drinks with interesting locals

Back home in Madison I use CouchSurfing to help travelers with advice. Have not hosted yet

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Once I went night skiing where there was not a single light but we used the clear night and bright moon to guide us. And another was the time my other friend and I hiked 3 nights in Montana, the last night we hiked all night with just the moonlight. It was serene, spooky, and sacred.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I have a lot of coffee knowledge. I used to own a drive-through coffee stand - so if you want to own a cafe I can definitely chat about that! I used to play music with a band that was on an indie record label, that was beyond amazing. Extremely hard but so glad I did it.
