ABOUT ME

I am currently traveling with my partner from the Pacific Northwest to Brooklyn, New York. I'm in a period of transformation after being laid off in a field of work I had been in for the past three years.

Sustainable living and intentional community present high value to me right now. I am hoping to join a community near a forested area with a a river. Until then, I'm exploring.

PHILOSOPHY

self-doubt and self-importance are one in the same

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been using couchsurfing since Spring of 2006. I am always willing to host when I'm not on the road - and when I'm on the road I love to surf on couches.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

the people I've met on couchsurfing and the things they've shown me have stuck with me. This site has really helped me develop closer bonds to people and their cities.
