Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Do I get participation points?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Taught a couple couch surfers to actually surf once. Like, in the ocean and stuff. Yeah.

Interests

language is something that fascinates me...a lot. I also enjoy cooking, writing, drawing, surfing, weird movies, talking about concepts and ideas, live music, learning about plants, kiwi birds, and of course traveling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked the Kalalau trail in Kauai and didn't fall into the ocean. Yaay.

Teach, Learn, Share

How to be awesome:

Take a piece of bread. Put it in the toaster. Wait about two minutes. Once your bread pops up, it will have become toast. Fascinating!

Top your toast with your favorite toast topping. Butter, jam, nutella, olive oil, honey, peanut butter, or cream cheese. Enjoy.

People who make toast are awesome.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook and bake like a grandma (assuming your grandma can cook.)

I'll introduce you to whatever music I'm currently obsessed with whether you ask me to or not, unless you're cooler than me and already know about it.
