I decided to join CS after my first solo trip to Greece in June, 2014. I was lucky enough to meet many many locals (not thru Couchsurfing) while I was out and about. They showed me such wonderful hospitality that I thought I should pay it forward and do the same for others traveling to the states. :) If you're just looking for a free place to stay...I'm probably not the host for you. I have been very fortunate to make friends all over the world hosting thru CS.

Music: anything really. Except country. Yuck. Movies: I love a good comedy. Books: Right now I'm in the middle of reading a few different Lonely Planet guides for my upcoming travels. I'm also reading First They Killed My Father.
