ABOUT ME ***Please do NOT contact me looking for anything romantic/sexual!!! That is not the spirit of Couchsurfing and definitely not why I'm here. Sorry for the rant, but this has happened repeatedly recently :( For obvious reasons, I cannot accept Surfers with no references + unverified. Max # of nights for surfers = 4. ***Also, if you're new to Couchsurfing and/or unsure about the etiquette, here's a great article: http://www.angloitalianfollowus.com/why-couchsurfing-is-free-is-a-myth I moved to the greater DC area ~6 years ago after a brief stint in Delaware, but have spent most of my life on the West Coast (all over California - Orange County/Santa Cruz/Sonoma/Monterey and a little while in Washington state). I am a big nerd (Star Wars, Harry Potter, Dr. Who) but apparently I have fooled people into thinking I am cool. I love people (most of them) and enjoy going out to bars, hanging out with friends, exercise and hiking, and traveling whenever and however possible. HOUSEHOLD I have one indoor-only cat and I often also have a foster cat or two; if you're allergic or don't like cats, you shouldn't stay with me. Also, you MUST be careful to not let her outdoors! Absolutely no drugs or illegal activities/4:20 okay I guess. LGBTQ+ friendly and open to any nationalities. I have a pretty tight Monday - Friday work schedule, so I usually can't hang out too much during the week :-/
