Hi! I’m Phoebe. I grew up in rural Vermont and have always had a taste for travel. Right now, I’m heading from the Southwest on my way back to the Northeast. Looking for people to find adventures and share stories with. I’m active and love to get outside. I seek out the best spots to watch sunrises and sunsets. I think the best things in life are shared. I have a HUGE sweet tooth, so I like to find the best bakeries wherever I visit. Want to eat the best donut in town and watch the sunrise?

About me as a guest:
I’m the second oldest of seven kids, so I know how to be wicked tidy in a small space. I’m down to chill on my own if you’re busy, but I also love people and would love to hang out. I’m an open communicator ready to adjust to your needs and expectations for a guest in your home. Never been to Austin before, so excited to see what it has to offer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to get to know a new place is to connect with its people. For me, couchsurfing is about getting to know you, not just the city you live in and not just your couch! Couchsurfing has set me up with wicked kind and fun people in the past, it doesn’t disappoint.

Interests

I’m a wilderness instructor back east and love getting outside. I definitely nerd out about learning local plants. Discovering new places and meeting new people energize me. Making and eating food brings me joy!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m a trained costume designer (feels like a past life now!), so I love to sew and mend things. Need a pair of jeans patched? Or your pants hemmed? I also love making tacos. If you like tacos, I will definitely make you tacos!
