About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet like-minded people - travel to random places

ABOUT ME

I am a liberal, vegetarian, atheist, teetotaler (just learned that word!). I am pretty quiet. I like to walk around downtown, play board games, go hiking, eat yummy food, sing, play ukulele, etc.

Have lived in Austin for about 2 years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am open to hosting and will definitely use CS to travel again at some point.

I won't typically answer a CS request if it is not directed to me in particular (i.e. super generic copy/paste).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mostly positive - I've surfed, hosted, and visited with couchsurfers. It was a great asset in Colombia!
