Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm moving from Burlington, VT to Portland, OR! And in between I'll be traveling for about a month! First I'll be visiting family and friends in the North East. Then I take the train from Baltimore to Seattle, where I will stay for about a week with my brother. Next a week in Vancouver, BC. This is where I can use your help. I don't know anyone in Vancouver. My partner will be moving there but I don't think she will be there yet. I can imagine possibly moving there too if Portland doesn't work out. So I need to check it out. I'll be traveling by train and will have my bike with me and only the amount of things I can fit on said bike. Let me know if you can help or know someone who can. Thanks!!!
