CURRENT MISSION

to meet other people with open hearts and minds during summer travels

ABOUT ME

I am very outgoing, sociable, and laid-back. I am organized and am more than happy to help clean whatever space I'm inhabiting.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to spread knowledge and happiness. I became a teacher to help other learn how to ask questions and not to trust just ANYTHING you hear. Always ask questions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted. I have yet to surf. I host in the summer time because I am not teaching and typically have more free time to be a great host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a lovely couple in the summer of 2013 as they were traveling across the country. We ventured around DC together and enjoyed each other's company.
