About Me

Note: I can only host people for a max of 4 days. If you request a longer stay than that I will have to decline.

Current mission: Start a traveling wedding band. You in?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To counteract the belief that strangers can't trust each other. To test the waters and see if I can keep both of my kidneys and other organs while participating in the act of sleeping on strangers couches.

If you’re requesting to stay with me, include the word “Pomona” in your request to ensure a reply :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Hitch hike in Switzerland with a stranger turned friend, Marco - we spent two hours in the car together and managed to communicate without sharing a common language, which blows my mind. Luckily I knew how to say 'bathroom' in French and he knew 'Alaska, fishing, and money' in English which kept the conversation going.
- World's Naked Bike Ride - by far one of the most uplifting, liberating things I've ever been a part of.

.....yeah, I know...that's two #civildisobedience

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're up for it, I might be able to show you how to play the Little Mermaid on your cheeks. And I'd jump at the opportunity to make you a mixtape.
