ABOUT ME

Travel is my number one hobby. I traveled around South America in 2005-2006, and was hooked ever since. I became well acquainted with couchsurfing.com in 2008-2009 when my best friend Katharine and I traveled to all 50 states for an art project. We met some of the kindest people through couch surfing. Now that we are traveling separately I need to make a new profile, and hope to meet more wonderful people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I prefer to meet people who live in the places I'm visiting, in order to get a local's perspective and tips on the city I'm learning about.
