ABOUT ME I was born & raised in Washington State and then went to high school in Arequipa, Peru. Backpacked South America a couple times, went to university in Olympia, Seattle, and Copenhagen. Travelling is such a thrill for me and I love meeting new people. Growing up my family hosted exchange students (and adults) from South Africa, Bolivia, Venezuela, India, Poland, Belgium, Mexico, Brazil, and Italy so I've always enjoyed the "couchsurfing" lifestyle of opening up my home to travellers from near and far!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I first experienced couchsurfing in 2007 when my roommate was a host in Olympia, Washington. In 2008 I couchsurfed through Denmark & Sweden while I was studying in Copenhagen. Last year I couchsurfed in istanbul & spain for several weeks. I'm currently the most "settled" i've ever been in life (real job? real apt?) so I started hosting people in Seattle in 2011!
