I live in Chico, California in the middle of almond orchards where I am constantly pondering my next adventure. Right now I spend my weekdays remodeling and painting an old house built in the 40's. My flexible schedule is allowing me to do some traveling and I'm looking for alternative accommodations to the usual hotels/hostels.
I'm vegan, rarely drink alcohol (but when I do I prefer scotch!), I go to bed early and get up even earlier, but can be swayed to staying out all night given the right circumstances. I like trying new things and going on spontaneous adventures.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I'd like to find fun, friendly people to hang out with when I'm traveling. I prefer sharing stories, laughing, and getting to know new people much more than staying in a fancy hotel.

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

I'll listen to just about any kind of music except country pop.
I love Netflix and will watch the weirdest stuff I can find. Documentaries are probably my favorite, although I enjoy anything that makes me laugh........or cry.
Recently, I've been enjoying sci-fi books.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

I've rescued 6 dogs and 4 cats and given them a happy home.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

I enjoy cooking and I love doing dishes!! Just don't ask me to fold laundry.
I make a great trail running and hiking partner and I'm always up to share an adventure.
I'm also willing to do yard work, anything you might need a hand with around the house, or just hangout with you.
