About Me

*Too busy to host the rest of 2024 but will be back in 2025!!*

Hellooooooooooooooo! We are a couple living in Portland, OR. This is originally my profile but added my husband Mitchell.

My name is Sutton - I have hosted in Portland OR, New Orleans LA, and Long Beach CA. I have surfed in Seattle, Vancouver, London, Stockholm, Oslo, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Romania, Budapest, Berlin, Austin, Hong Kong, Mongolia(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9Y2t0DwdzI), Wyoming, New Zealand, and Utah. Mitchell has hosted in Portland and we have met up with some CSers in Spain, but he has yet to surf!

Mitchell is from San Diego and I'm originally from New Orleans, but we both lived in Los Angeles for ~10 years (we work in the film industry). We moved to Portland at the end of May 2024 and just hosted our first couchsurfer in June. We are open to hosting someone/a group once a month MAX as we are busy 30 somethings and we want to have time to hang out with you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet cool people 8)

Here is a short, five minute documentary Sutton made about couch surfing called NOT A HOTEL! (it's a student film, don't judge) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ8T97uv5EE

---TLDW? - Basically, couchsurfing is NOT A HOTEL! It is a cultural exchange, karma exchange, place for friends, nice place, etc :) We are not a free airbnb :) :) :)

Interests

Sutton likes karaoke (we live half a block away from the best karaoke bar in Portland fyi), lovingly making fun of other people's accents, Ren Faires, cooking, playing drums, etc.

Mitchell likes surfing, playing piano/guitar/bass, laughing and smiling, browsing reddit for hours, etc.

We both like making movies, watching movies, lots of coffee, making new friends, road trips, animals, chillin', hiking, backpacking, traveling (duh), spicy food, tiki bars, and meeting awesome people from around the world!
