Hello & welcome!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My boyfriend and I have space to share so why not?! I’ve couched surfed while abroad and I’d like to return the favor...

Mark is a long time local of Milwaukee and I’ve done plenty of exploring here and we’d would love to share this often overlooked city.

Music, Movies, and Books

•Most places around us have live music and there are few local DJs I follow... if you want to check out the local scene.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mark and I met in Madrid while I was a nanny there. We had 10 days together. Ended up traveling Europe together that summer. 3 years later here we are living in Milwaukee with our sweet pear of a cat, Judy.

Teach, Learn, Share

Mark grows micro greens, brews ginger beer, kombucha, and does all kinds of fermenting/preserving of veggies. If you’re interested he could share what he knows but he’s also still learning.

Mark and I are pretty creative cooks and try to make most things from scratch. We make our own bone broth but we’d also like to learn to make bread... Mark might have more hope for that than I do though haha.

I’ve been working on my fluency in Spanish; I’m about 50% there now. I’ve also inherited my grandmother’s sewing machine and trying to learn on it.

Recently I’ve rediscovered the joys of Rollerskating and there’s a rink close by and I go to classes for roller disco. If you want to giggle and move, I’d love to take you!
