CURRENT MISSION

Learn as much as possible. Quit my job as a pastry cook back in April 2019, so I could experience pastries while traveling and interning around Europe.

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty friendly and easy-going. As a hospitality major, I love meeting new people and hearing about people's experiences and cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

Live through experiences

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosted a family in Vail. Looking to surf more through Europe to gain the locals' perspective on food and dining.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Spent years traveling with my family and living around the U.S. and England albeit never even heard of Couchsurfing until the last few years. Just finished hosting a family of four with my brother. It was a great experience, as we heard about their life on the road.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most memorable trips my family has taken was to the Galapagos Islands. During the trip we saw the most amazing, unique animals from blue-footed boobies to sea lions, all in their natural habitat. It was the perfect amount of adventure and relaxation.

Also, watching a midsommar bonfire from the Harbor Master's boat in Copenhagen while enjoying the company and barbecue.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I Can Share with Hosts

A lot of dad jokes :)

Also perhaps a small token of my appreciation!
