About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going, honest, and caring person. I love the type of slow travel that allows you to really get to know a place. Couchsurfing has allowed me to meet locals who know the best local spots, and host and share my city. I love cooking, enjoying long meals with friends, knitting, reading, happy hour, game night, and practicing my ukulele.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting and surfing whenever I'm able. Talking up couchsurfing to fellow travelers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My roommate hosted my first guests a few years ago - two writers from Denmark, and they turned me on to the wonderful world of couchsurfing.

Since then, I've surfed and hosted a handful of times, and I'm continually impressed with the kindness and hospitality of the couchsurfing community.

Interests

meeting new people, reading the writings of brilliant individuals, laughing, sitting still, moving, baking, sharing wine, music I can dance to, lectures, friends, films, crossword puzzles, jumping in puddles, traveling, feminism, and more!
