I'm curious, maybe insatiable. I can be courageous. I seek contentedness by trying to appreciate the invariable restlessness. I love most forms of movement and expression. I am fascinated by people and their stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Had enriching experiences hosting from my parent's home in Carmel Valley, CA. Did a bit of surfing and meet ups in Peru. Now getting more involved in the Portland CS scene.

I've meet some excellent people through hosting and love that CS is conducive to meeting/making friends of friends of friends. I'm quite thankful that our paths crossed via CouchSurfing.
