ABOUT ME

I work at the Children's Hospital here in Colorado

PHILOSOPHY

I'm all about good friends and good food. Savoring every moment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I loan my couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I was interviewing for schools, I stayed on various couches, so I think I have a good sense of what makes a good couch. I've hosted many friends and visitors over the years, and I think they've enjoyed my couch hosting abilities.
