ABOUT ME

I love to travel but am currently semi-settled on the beautiful coast of Central California in San Luis Obispo. I'm a barista and a student of music. I'm learning how to make a mean latte and sight-sing...maybe that seems unrelated, but I'm quite sure it will all come together at some point. As of now, I don't have any plans to flee the country, but would love to host vagabonds.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is all about loving God and loving people. This is my lifelong goal. Never easily accept without questioning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch surfing is great. To travel is to immerse oneself in a new culture, and the best way to do that is to see real people and real life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a Canadian couchsurfing adventurer, but haven't done any couchsurfing before. It's always been hostels for me.
