I am a free spirit who loves to travel. I am planning on moving to Portland to go to school and become a makeup artist. I currently live in New Orleans and I have been a bartender for over 10 years. I am a pretty easygoing and laid back person. I am doing great things with my life and want to continue to do so. I am a Trans Women, who has recently started transitioning and I am determined to see more of the world that is out there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here because I need to find an affordable way to move around Portland while I look for work and get to know the city. I only need a week, before I move to another place. I am excited to try all the great food, coffee, and nightlife Portland has to offer. I am also hoping this will be a great way to make new friends.
