Hello, lovely humans! I'm a laughable friendly spirit from North Carolina. I've lived in several places in the US as well as in Senegal, Malawi and Thailand where I have studied or worked. I love traveling, music, the outdoors, and humor.

In terms of hosting me, I'm very respectful of other people's spaces. I will leave your space at least as good as I found it - I'm just grateful that this kind of giving and receiving exists!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was a couchsurfing member for a few years (around 2009) but could not find my old account, so alas, a new one with no references had to be created! I had such pleasant experiences on couchsurfing that, now that I wanted to try it again.

My fiance and I will be traveling to Iceland in August 2019 and would love to hear from you if you have recommendations for our 10 days there or could host us!

Music, Movies, and Books

Love international music (West African esp), anything with wonderful vocals or a good danceable beat. Tuneyards is one of my favorite artists.
Movies: The Princess Bride is a classic
Books: The Giving Tree (and thousands of other books meant for children but important for adults to read)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can lick my elbow!
I mean, there are a million amazing things that have happened in my life. I feel very fortunate to have visited all the places I have, smelled their air, touched their dirt, seen their sun. The world is very beautiful.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, languages, bad/good (depending on how you look at it) jokes, beautiful nature photographs made into cards, and if you have a ukulele, teach you a song
