CURRENT MISSION

To discover new and startling reasons to get up in the morning.

ABOUT ME

I'm a full-time student at Reed College and a part-time dreamer, night owl, and philosopher. I don't tramp around the country as much since I started school, but I still love to travel and explore. And since my life calmed down some, I'm up for any and every break from the mundane. If you want to explore Portland, do something extraordinary, get a drink or cup of coffee, or just have somewhere warm to sleep, hit me up!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After couchsurfing helped me make it across the country, I decided to give something back. Now that I've got my own couch, I'm ready to share it with anyone that needs it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once hitchhiked 2000 miles to see the world's largest ball of sisal twine. It was a really, really big ball of twine! Well worth the trip, I would say.
