About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to give people a fun and free place to crash as they are bouncing around from place to place and of course to share experiences of the beautiful places and great people in this world.

ABOUT ME

I have moved back to Seattle recently and I frickin' love being back!

PHILOSOPHY

smile and feel good as much as you can. Drinking helps! haha, just joking, but seriously, it doesn't hurt!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I both share my couch and crash on other people's couches. I am really just looking to let people travel comfortably and freely without the hassle of worrying about costs or finding out the good areas of the city. I'll fill you in on all the good spots!! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Did it first time in Istanbul, Turkey with some people I now consider my immediate family. Met a guy who crashed on my couch in Seattle who I now regard as one of my closest friends. I also met a guy who crashed at my place in Taiwan who is now one of my best friends. Great experiences all around!

Interests

rock climbing, volleyball and soccer. I also really enjoy playing piano and trying to learn new modern songs on it. I suck at the guitar but am thoroughly fascinated by it. Pretty strings.
