***At this time, I’m only hosting women and LGBTQ+ travelers. Thank you for respecting this***

Hey! I'm an open-minded and fun-loving person, and I enjoy making friends around the world. I also love music, films, books, and experiencing new places. I feel most at home in my little apartment in Portland, OR, in nature, or on a plane, leading to the next adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to experience every culture I can and to live like a local! I try to demystify the world and make meaningful connections and memories with people. I feel strongly about the unique and beautiful opportunities for friendship that Couchsurfing brings :)

I've spent a few months in South America studying Spanish in Peru and volunteering to aid Venezuelan refugees in Colombia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give beginner guitar lessons or take professional-quality photos.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm happy to share stories and personal experiences. As someone who has spent time on both coasts and in most of the major cities of the United States, I can tell you the best spots to visit here.

I am easy-going and always considerate of others.
