I love to see a new place through the proud eyes of someone who lives there. And people who are drawn to a community like CS tend to feel kindred. I haven't used this platform in years. I think I had a different account with another email address like a decade ago but I can't really remember. So, I'm starting over! My recent couchsurfing experiences have been less official and somewhat more organic but it seemed time to get back involved with this beautiful community. I live in my art studio otherwise I would be excited to host. As soon as I have a more spacious living situation I look forward to offering space to other travelers. In the meantime, I'm here...humbly requesting your trust and a tiny corner to sleep in. I look forward to meeting you!
