A curious, compassionate traveler with enough regrets to say yes to most things and enough sense to have plans B-Z just in case. Spicy food love was amplified by living in Asia, appreciation of diverse cultures grows when I host interesting people, and love for the planet we share deepens through reading good books.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Enjoy hosting others. Rescued a stranded traveller after our ferry was canceled and ended up meeting the best chef in Nantucket. Once squeezed my family of four into a tiny manhattan studio and had a fantastic time together.

Looking to host you on my comfortable couch near Vancouver, BC, and share a taste of your city or town when I travel. Will be abroad most of april-july 2025 but shoot me a messsage I might be able to host

Love to travel/ always grateful to go home.
