Adventure-seeking, thoughtful, curious, and easy-going. I've been told I have a calm, warm, inviting energy. I like coffee shops and nature, bars and clubs. Give me all of it! I'm interested in sharing thoughts, ideas, experiences. I love learning from others and appreciating people for who they are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm finally living out my dreams of traveling solo! I am excited to travel with couchsurfing because I feel my traveling experience will be much richer if I am able to meet locals and experience a taste of what it is like to live in a new place.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a solo road trip around the western United States. It was my first solo traveling experience aside from a long layover I had in Paris, which was a whole adventure in itself, but that's another story..

Teach, Learn, Share

I feel I teach most by just being how I am in the world and sharing my perspectives, but in a more practical sense I'm happy to show you how to cook my favorite meals or teach you a card game. I'm learning Spanish and interested in learning more about gardening, cooking or any craft or skill that you know. I'll share stories, laughs, and a listening ear.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a grateful guest and will willingly jump in to help cook, clean, buy groceries, do laundry, or anything else you need. I hope to share open communication about each other's needs and mutual respect for each others' space and privacy.
