About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling to Shanghai for school, with some extra trips to Japan and hopefully somewhere else amazing but yet to be determined.
ABOUT ME

I don't drink, but I do smoke.

I'm random. Well read yet uneducated. I like to be unpredictable, but in a fun way. I'm happy, but often exhausted because I try to fit too much stuff into my life.

PHILOSOPHY

Stress free, yet responsible. Emotion enriches the experiences we share with one another, I try to stay positive and am my happiest when finding new people to share these feelings with.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host often, and have surfed a little.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted a student from Wisconsin. She was cool. Will host again, for sure. Hosted another young lady from Wisconsin for her 24 hour layover in LA on her way to Australia. She was also super cool, and waaaaay cute. Hosted two brilliant Estonian sisters, both on an epic 6 month adventure across California. I surfed in Prague, with my new favorite person, Petra D. I figure as long as you play your cards with an open hand, only good things happen when couchsurfing. I hosted Andi, a German girl with exactly my taste in music. We partied in Hollywood and got some culture at the Getty. She's amazing.

Interests

I'm a chef, a musician, I love to cook, get a little stoney, and play music. I don't drink alcohol anymore, but I do smoke.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Standing on top of the temple of the sun in Teotihuacan. The brown smog obscured my view, but I could see the impression they were trying to make.
Attemtping to have a French conversation with a Japanese woman I met in London. My French is, well...bad.
Being lost in Prague. Being lost in Rome. Eating pizza in Rome. Drinking beer in Prague.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll tell you all my recipes. I'll listen to your music. I'll play some of mine for you, too. I'll show you where to get the best pot, too.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook like a pro, because I was a chef for a looooooong time. I can play guitar, I'm polite, I'm respectful of personal space, I clean up after myself
