ABOUT ME

I'm pretty laid back, and easily adaptable. Partying until the sun comes up, or cooking dinner and having a nice walk are all equally as enjoyable. I love good social fun, good food, good people, and good conversation. Currently training for triathlon worlds in New Zealand.

PHILOSOPHY

work hard, play hard.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couchsurfed in Europe in multiple cities and have deeply enjoyed every experience. I look forward to reciprocating as soon as I have an acceptable place of my own.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Summer 2010 trip to Europe- Amsterdam, Paris, Toulouse, Barcelona, Berlin, Prague. Have not yet had my own place besides a tiny dorm room on campus to host, but someday will.

Interests

Swimming: competitively, or not, the water is my element. Triathlon. learning the workings of the world and how to play my part in making change, reading the news, eating creating and talking about food, being active, exploring, wondering, being with good people. Brewing beer and being a portland beer snob. learning about wine.
