CURRENT MISSION

Wherever you stand, be the soul of that place

ABOUT ME

In Latin, "creed" means "i believe," so my last name basically means, "I believe I can." It like to think it helps me with the power of positive thinking.

Currently, I'm living in the Portland area where I enjoy the great outdoors, film photography, making music with my band and writing. I also work as a marketing professional at a small liberal arts university, where I love take classes and continually learn new things.

During university, I was lucky enough to spend a year on exchange in Australia, living in both Melbourne and Sydney. I absolutely adored Australia and had my first couch surfing experiences there with some awesome people! I also traveled around New Zealand and Thailand before coming back home.

As a creative person, I am always looking for opportunities to connect with others who are creatively inclined.

Oregon certainly has a lot to offer in the nature department and being a native Oregonian I would love to share my knowledge of trails and viewpoints with fellow Couchsurfers who are interested. I'm also a fan of nature photography, and predominately shoot on 35mm film so I am always happy to both share what I know and learn more from others.

I'm looking forward to more time meeting new Couchsurfing friends, weather it be through hosting or surfing.

Happy Travels!:)

PHILOSOPHY

Life is meant to be lived.

I think our time on this rock is pretty short and I want to make sure I experience lots of new places and people before more time runs out.

I also think that if you put your mind to something, you can make it happen.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It's safe to say that I have a severe case of Wanderlust, but when I'm not able to travel I love showing other Couchsurfers around wherever I am living to ensure they have a positive experience!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Amazing experiences, great times, fun memories and wonderful friendships have been formed. I'm looking forward to gaining more Couchsurfing experience!
