** Note: Please only message me if you are visiting San Francisco, where I am based! I keep getting requests for other cities, likely because of a CS bug that has me showing up in search for a bunch of other places**

CURRENT MISSION

To float like dandelion fluff throughout the world, going anywhere, everywhere that I can and meeting the beautiful people who call these places home. I spent eight months traveling through Australia and Southeast Asia and am now trying to do a little hosting to give back to the community :]

ABOUT ME

Curious, easy-going, enthusiastic about everything. I love swapping stories and sharing frank and flowing conversations.

PHILOSOPHY

Attitude is everything and kindness reigns supreme

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

During a backpacking trip through Australia and Southeast Asia I was blown away by how amazing this app was a resource for broadening horizons and forging friendships — I'm in love!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've both surfed and hosted and have met fascinating people each time and hope to continue to do so!

I've actually taken a long hiatus from hosting, in part because I received too many requests to sort through them all :x

So that I know you've read my full profile, include any type of emoji in the first line of your message ✨In the body of your request, include either a joke or an embarrassing travel experience! Also, please let me know your COVID vax status / safety protocols

Interessi

traveling.writing.giggling

i'm trying to learn spanish, so extra points if you can speak and would be willing to muddle through kindergarten-level conversations with me!

Musica, film e libri

Folk-rock but, really, anything that I can dance to (even though I am a terrible dancer). Impossible to pick a favorite book, but I love George Saunders, Zadie Smith, John Irving, Karen Russell. I always say Harold and Maude is my favorite movie, partially out of habit at this point :x

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Was the rock-paper-scissors champion of my hometown.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I'm far from an amazing chef but I'd love to cook you up something tasty if you're generous enough to share your home. I covered the tech industry back home so can teach you as much about Silicon Valley as you care to learn :]

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I come bearing a big smile and a warm heart! I'd love to swap stories and experiences.
