Honest to a fault, stubborn, passionate, independent and forgiving. I'm an extroverted introvert who thrives when confronted with new and adventurous social experiences. The forests, rivers, and mountains are where I go to ground myself. Living in China has been a challange for this reason, though an experience ill forever look at fondly. I have never directly hosted or been a guest using couchsurfing. It's time to change this. Bonus: My home in the US is located minutes from a ski resort and world class fly fishing. My offer to reciprocate any hosts with a couch back in the States is genuine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I fly out of Shanghai and need a safe and secure place to stay for the four days prior to my flight.
