Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I've been in Portland, I've met a lot of people whose community roots grow from couchsurfing, and so it's nice to be apart of it even if I'm not an active couchsurfer or host.

I couchsurfed, for the first and only time, when I was 19 and decided to go the Voodoo Festival in New Orleans. It was wonderful!

Interests

hiking, camping, biking, dancing (hip-hop and pole dancing), meditation (vipassana), reading nonfiction, writing poetry, music festivals (my favorite: pickathon in oregon; most memorable babb festival in montana), bouldering, etc :)
