CURRENT MISSION To know France like the back of my hand by the end of this month. ABOUT ME I live in Portland, Oregon and I enjoy reading, writing, riding my bike, hiking and camping. I am quiet yet somehow outgoing at the same time. I will soon begin service for AmeriCorps as a senior housing repair coordinator, which means I will be helping older folks fix their homes. I cannot wait to begin a career in helping people rise up from poverty and other social disadvantages. PHILOSOPHY Get more out of it while you can.

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Right now I live in NE Portland, and I'd love to show anybody around town. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I had two couch surfers from Chicago stay with me when I lived in southeast Portland... They were incredibly nice! We had a potluck the night that they stayed over, and they cleaned ALL of our dishes the next day before any of us woke up! I was pleasantly surprised. We also had a lot in common... It definitely enlightened my perspective on couch surfing.
