Hello! My name is Lynn Carter Waldon. I am from Louisiana and moved to Maine in September of 2017. Travel is one thing I enjoy and I'd love to do more of it. Seeing the world has always helped me see myself.

I enjoy my solitude but also love good conversation. I love folk, metal, punk, and country music, public art, and good food! My long term goals involve teaching, mutual aid and other forms of direct action, and furthering my spitirual life. I am a musician, you can often find me riding my bike, drinking coffee, or at shows for local bands.

I play bass in my band. I love these guys.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a young person who wants to see the U.S. of A. This community really lines up with my values. Traveling can be lonely!

I value communication and safety very strongly and it is my goal to bring positivity and helpfulness with me wherever I go. I appreciate all the gracious people on this website looking to share what they have.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've found a way to live a beautiful and fulfilling life.

Teach, Learn, Share

These days I mostly work on my realtionships, my attitude, and playing music. I enjoy a good heady conversation. I also enjoy life's little practicalities.

It is a goal of mine to learn more about activism, to further my education, and my work. The most tangible and meaningful things in my life are my love of food, spirituality, and friendship. I can always offer a listening ear.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking!!! The idea of having access to a kitchen is a big draw for me looking at couch surfer! I l can bake some wicked southern style biscuits.
I pick up after myself. Need any chores or maintenance projects done around your home? I'm so down.
I'd love to share in any cool groups you belong to, be it a dance party, a game night, or a church. I love socializing and playing card games (the rules to which i will immidiately forget afterward), playing music with people, and checking out the local scene.
I love meeting people and talking about everything, unless we are tired, and enjoying simple beautiful things. I would also love to share a good adventure!
