About Me

Be true, be honest, be kind!

ABOUT ME

I am an opinionated, optimistic, outgoing, personable and easy going person. I enjoy new company and meeting new people. I feel comfortable talking to just about anyone about anything.

Been in San Francisco 5 years now and still exploring the city and enjoying new scenery. If you couchsurf on the weekends I am open to joining you for some exploring or free to do your own thing.

If you're interested in staying with me, I am in the Bernal Heights neighborhood. Easy transit and/or walking distance to Mission District as well as other parts of the city. You can catch major transit such as BART, Cal Train, and municipal lines about 25 mins walk. Bus lines also can get you where you need to go.

Just a heads up. I also have a dog and two snakes that live at the house with me. The snakes are caged and stay in their cage unless you want to hold them. Very docile and tame. Brynn, the hound dog, is affectionate and will definitely wants some love from you.

PHILOSOPHY

Never let an opportunity to have fun pass you by! Never regret anything you do! Things happen for a reason, so let them happen!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am up to couch surf and offer my couch to travelers, make contacts and explore with people in my city, as well as the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Joined when I was traveling through Europe Summer 2011. I enjoy hosting people from around the world, making contacts and having conversations about experiences had or soon to be had.

Interests

Seeing a beautiful landscape, whether it be a Redwood Forest, or a snow covered mountainside, or a vast prairie covered in wild flowers, I absolutely love to stand still for a moment and just watch. The quieter the better. I love the snow and snowboarding is a passion.

Music, Movies, and Books

Personal Favorite is Office Space and Shawshank Redemption. I listen to country music mostly, but next is Classic/Modern Rock.

I’ve been really into audio books. Recently I listened to Project Hail Mary, which was excellent. Especially for the science minded folk. Where the Crawdads Sing, The Four Winds, and One for the Blackbird, One for the Crow where all great listens. Also, laughed my ass off to Back in the Burbs,

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Opening Ceremonies of Running of the Bulls Festival in Pamplona, Spain. One of the most crazy parties of my life. Sangria was flying in the air, people were chanting, and a wild party raged for multiple days.

Powder Day in Mammoth, CA. 10 feet of fresh powder! The mountain was never so beautiful.

Kavos, Corfu. Meeting a local family to take me out to a Greek Festival in the Hills of Corfu. Dancing, food, and one amazing time.
