Hi! I'm Madison. I live in Michigan. I'm into hiking and biking, local food, cross country skiing in the winter and hanging at Lake Michigan in the summer. I'm involved in a community improv group here because I can't think of a better way to spend your time. I'm a deeply curious person and will get right in there to get to know you, but a deep believer in boundaries too. On a never ending quest to understand myself and find that meeting new people seems to help us all do that.

Open to friendship, but leave romance at the back door pls 🤗

In Europe mid-October through early December

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Give a little, get a little. I'm on Couchsurfing to learn from and share with hosts and travelers who also value this sustainable form of traveling. Hospitality is one of the greatest gifts we can share or receive.

Música, películas y libros

Lately I've been listening to a lot of reggae and pop punk queens from the early 2000s. 90.7 NMC in Traverse City kills it, Fip radio is my go-to and an old friend in Marseille turned me on to Radio Grenouille which is great for streaming. Films and books are a long list. Some of my recent favorite movies are Minari and The Hand of God. For reading I honestly predominantly read cook books but I also love the publication Plough Shares. My sister provides me with an endless stream of fiction suggestions, most recently I read "Beautiful World, Where Are You"

Algo increíble que he hecho

One time I sat next to Bob Seger's manager at a college football game and he let me keep his hat?? But camping in the Queyras was a real treat and such a special memory. We brought merguez sausage and fashioned a campfire grill out of found wire and a mouse ate all our cantaloupe. When we woke up the mountains were looming all around us in the sunrise. Surreal

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I love to cook and I'm happy to share a meal! And as someone who has worked with children I have a few good games up my sleeve. Going for a nature walk is also fun, I'll seldom turn down a card game, and karaoke and dancing are two things that fill my whole body with joy. Plus improv games of course.
