ABOUT ME

Hello, all! My name is Kaitlin, but I go by Kiki :) I am currently a full-time nanny/ artist. I really enjoy creative pursuits, whether they be collaborating with my performance artist friends or doing solo artwork.

As far as traveling goes, ever since I was little, I was fascinated with seeing new places. I would go on little journeys with my dad, exploring different parts of my town. As soon as I could, I unofficially couch surfed in Key West and was hooked! All of these travels and encounters have shaped me into the person I am today. I have come a long way, but there is much more in me to be discovered yet.

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately over the past few years I haven't been as active in the community, but I'm trying to change that now!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was a host to many CSers for a year and it was an incredible experience. Last year I drove from San Francisco to San Diego and back with my best friend- such a gorgeous state! We got to stay with two wonderful CS hosts as well :)

Now I am finally going to travel in Europe! With my little sister we're going to explore Dublin > London > Amsterdam > Barcelona. Trying to stay and meet up with as many people as possible!!

Interests

I'm obsessed with my durable Canon AE- 1 35mm camera- I'll probably want to take a photo of you, if you let me! :)
