About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm always seeking adventures, love meeting people and learning new things!

PHILOSOPHY

"and in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to be able to host on my very comfy black velvet couch, but I recently moved to a new apartment with new roommates and unfortunately don't have a space that I can offer anymore! Hopefully this will change soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

There's nothing like learning from locals. I've had some awesome CouchSurfing experiences in Portland, Seattle, Atlanta, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Belize and can't wait for more! Couchsurfers that have stayed with me have taught me how to juggle and to make crepes -- I love this teaching/learning part of the experience.

Interests
