CURRENT MISSION

grow up without becoming a grown-up.

ABOUT ME

I recently graduated from art college and I'm excited to explore the world!

I'm pretty laid-back and I love people. In my free time I read good books and go out dancing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went around western Europe right after college with a combination of hostels and CouchSurfing and had an amazing time. I also met up with some fellow CSers in SE Asia when I was there last year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once saw a gangster storm into a Rite Aid in the middle of the night demanding salad dressing.

I also went skydiving once in Montana, which was amazing and terrifying.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to do these things:
-Screenprint
-Draw (during my stay on Lopez Island I drew a portrait of my hosts' house; maybe I could draw something for you, too).
-Make badass deviled eggs
-Tell an an embarrassingly large number of lame, lame jokes
