ABOUT ME

I am 29 and I love to travel.
I grew up here in Western North Carolina and I spend a lot of time hiking and camping. I live here for the beer, the bluegrass, and the Blue Ridge Mountains.

PHILOSOPHY

“But I don’t want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin.” – Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I look to Couchsurfing as a great opportunity to share culture in a more meaningful way when visiting/hosting in foreign countries. A way to see the insides of a culture you don’t get in hostels and hotels. Therefore we are mostly accepting foreign guests. Open to domestic travelers but don’t think hosting US guests is as meaningful to me as a host.

I had an amazing experience couch surfing. I learned so much about different communities and how couchsurfing supports a great travel culture that I was excited to be a part of. I made some really great connections with people and look forward to more experiences. I am happy to now invite others to see my beautiful home here in Asheville and experience all the great things it has to offer.
