I moved to Tacoma from Hawaii last summer. I left the small island I grew up on to pursue my dreams of going far in film making, photography, and dance. I'm currently working in real estate as well as running a photography business which you can see examples of at shotbybay.com and onetwoclickphotography.com. I'm beginning to pursue youtube on the side of work so that I can put out short films and other videos, if you don't mind being featured in daily filming or even better yet enjoy talking to a camera, then we're a great match.

I looooove adventures, hikes, and most of all the ocean. I play guitar and dance. I'm a vegan master chef and a very clean person. My current life goal is to get paid to travel the world while taking pictures and making videos.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'll be in Seattle from July 10th - 30th for a dance intensive (which is three weeks of 9-5 intense dance classes, no class on weekends) and they haven't released the prices for housing yet but I'm sure that they'll be steep as I'm already putting out $1,000 on the tuition itself. I'd like to check-in and see if anyone's down to have me for three weeks, in case I can't afford the housing prices. I might end up staying a week or two in the dorms, and a week staying with someone!

Interests

Oh man... so many things. TRAVEL! In love with French culture and to travel to Paris would be a dream come true. I want to go anywhere and everywhere with a beautiful coast. My other biggest passions are photography, film making, and dance.

Music, Movies, and Books

Indie acousticy music but can vibe with anything that's not hard rock, metal, or discriminating rap.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Auditioned for the most successful musical of all time, got a part, and then left my audition and position to spend the day exploring the coast line before taking a 27 hour greyhound bus back home because I missed my flight. Will never do. Again. Never. Ever. Screw you greyhound bus.

What I Can Share with Hosts

In return for your couch I would be happy to cook you delicious vegan meals, teach you to dance, take pictures of you, become your pets new best friend, and recount my tales of shark encounters and waterfall cliff jumps from my Hawaiian childhood. It would be awesome to stay with someone who has stories to tell and is down to be my official Seattle tour guide.
