Hello! My name is Lindsey. I've been living in Seattle for a decade where I attended college and worked for the years that followed. I'm in love with the beauty of this place that always has mountains and water at every turn.

I love riding my bike and exploring new places by bicycle.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Adventure, of course! My partner and I bike touring around the country for the next several months and are looking to meet new people and explore new places.

We are leaving Seattle and biking down the Pacific Coast. We'll cut east across the southern tier of the United States towards New Orleans and then up the east coast.

We'll be flying by the seat of our pants and going where the road takes us.

I hope to host more often in the near future for fellow travelers.
Let's meet up!

Teach, Learn, Share

I've spent the last 5 years as a bike mechanic, instructor and programs coordinator at local non-profits in Seattle. I'd love to share my knowledge and help you fix your bike, too.

I'm learning ASL and I love opportunities to sign and challenge myself.

I'm always interested in learning more travel hacks and gaining more bike knowledge. Please send your book recommendations to me.
