Hi everyone, my name is Duck! My roommate* and I host tons of couch surfers! He has the second most active couch surfing profile in LA.

I am a physicist with a love for travelling, meeting new people, board games, and all things vegan. People from around the world have such different experiences! I love to hear how everyone is capable of teaching me something new about some corner of the world.

I am multifaceted, and enjoy such activities as hiking, rock climbing, frisbee, estatic dance, contact improv, cuddle parties, and much more!

I'm a lifelong learner, and would love to learn about what makes everyone and everyplace unique.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My roommate and I have been hosting couch surfers for several years, but it's always been through his account that people have connected.

I've just recently decided to start being more active on CS as I start more of my own travels.
