Adventurer... Traveller at heart... Can't get enough of either! I'm looking to meet people as I travel, professionally and for pleasure. I'd rather gain the flavor of a place by experiencing it through the eyes of a local!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people of like mind... Share adventures, and be a gracious host in my own backyard. I'm outgoing by nature, told I'm a great conversationalist- why not meet as many people as possible to share these experiences?

Interests

Travel, art, design, gardening, hiking, camping.
I wouldn't be on here if I didn't enjoy getting out and seeing the world. When I get the chance to do so, I love seeing what people "do" in their locales. The local art, food scene, what architecture and garden design is around and if possible, get out into nature whenever possible.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music- fairly eclectic, EDM, 40s hits, Rock, metal, R&B, anything played live!
Books- Game of Thrones, LOTR, Harry Potter, The Universe in a Nutshell, Guns, Germs, and Steel, The Information
Movies- Really the same as what I read. Annnnd comedy. I'm a sucker for the occasional mindless comedy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dipped my feet (accidentally) in both the Tigris and Euphrates. Wouldn't recommend. But it was for a good cause.

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to share my passion for design and museums. I have a background in and used to travel the States building museums. Learning is one of my passions, if I can find someone willing to indulge in that with me- we've both found a fast friend.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm clean, low maintenance, and I tell a great story. Also a fan of sharing wine and pitching in with dinner chores and helping tidy up. I also like to listen to people's life stories.
