About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To share, to laugh, to learn

ABOUT ME

I tend to choose the path of most resistance. I like to be challenged and am always up for a good adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

To be open to new experiences and people. I guess I just try to learn something new everyday and keep questioning what I already know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to think of myself as a good guest. I am a decent host and a great travel buddy because I have about 10 jokes that I tell on rotation. Just pretend you have never heard them before and we will get along great.

I have also been fortunate enough to be involved in the Ambassador program and to volunteer at the CS Thai Collective.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My parents are musicians and so my sister and I did a lot of unofficial couchsurfing growing up. When we were really small we sometimes slept in guitar cases, but now I prefer something softer.

As far as my official cs experiences...there are just too many to list.

Interests

space exploration, talking to strangers, cooking feasts, linux, live music, hanging out with animals, and traveling (obviously).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw my younger sister being born. At the time I thought it was pretty gross, but looking back I am really happy to have been part of her official welcoming party.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can hopefully share good conversation, cooking experiments, bike rides, laughing contests and general fun. I am hoping to learn about the intricacies of other cultures.
