Hello! I was born and raised in Portland, OR.

My favorite thing in this world is to be outside in the beautiful forests of the Pacific Northwest, where I hug trees, track bird songs, and follow every animal trail I find. When I'm not outside, I like knitting (socks and sweaters especially), reading (anything from fantasy to field guides), drinking tea, practicing wilderness survival skills of various kinds, drawing, listening to music, and roller skating.

I am mediocre to moderately skilled at many things but enjoy doing them all immensely!

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I am only participating as a surfer, but hope to one day obtain a couch of my very own so that I may host too!
