About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet some interesting new people and hopefully some others in my area who want to do some camping/climbing in the ADK this summer!

ABOUT ME

Currently occupying our 2 bedroom apartment is Sam, our 2 cats, my sister, and her little dog. We only have one couch but more are welcome to stay on the roll out sleeping pads. We're hoping to find a second sofa soon. Ideally it'll be a pull out sleeper sofa even! Crossing our fingers!
Other than that Sam, Sarah and I are pretty relaxed, but we get up early in the morning during the week, so we dont often go out for more than a beer or 2 Mon-Fri. We're hoping to get a bunch of camping in this summer... but that remains to be seen. There is just too much going on just outside our front door!
We drink, Sarah and I smoke, but only on the balcony. You are more than welcome to do the same!

PHILOSOPHY

Dull women have immaculate houses (and I do live by this one lol. Ya, I'm a bit of a pack rat... I'm working on it though!)

It is what it is, and it's going to be what it's going to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couch surfing experiences have typically involved getting drunk with friends in various upstate New York dives. Viva la 20 main! (no one under 21 allowed unless accompanied by a parent or legal guardian!)

Interests

Skiing/boarding (snow and water)and just sports in general. I'm also partial to going out (living next to one of Montreals best bar strips really facilitates this.)
