I'm an aspiring adult, freelance product person, future entrepreneur, hobbyist cook of tweezer cuisine, and travel junkie (no one warned me about the withdrawl symptoms, how easy it is to relapse, or the side effect of always wanting to try new things).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started by using CS for hangouts while traveling solo and have enjoyed making new friends and hearing everyone's stories. I dream that one day, I'll be able to collect and make recipes from your grandmother.

Interests

My interests are constantly in flux. I have a "bucket list" that changes regularly. Currently on my list to work on are: scuba, sailing, hiking, rock climbing, and music.

During my travels, I enjoy learning new languages although I'm still only fluent in English despite all my efforts in French, Italian, and Chinese. I can currently say "hello", "beer", "thank you", and "egg" in about 7 or 8 different languages.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies - I've liked all the blockbusters that Marvel studios pumps out, but I also enjoy the Indie flicks at film festivals.

Music - I once saw Ben Folds play with the SF symphony, a sort of unusual combo, and was absolutely blown away by his talent.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made a 12 course meal - it took me a good part of 3 days to make!

Teach, Learn, Share

LEARN
Anything. I'm an aspiring polymath.

SHARE
For 2018, I'll rarely be home, but if I look available, send a couch request and we can figure that out.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Home-cooked food, alcoholic beverages from the store, bad singing, an ear for listening, laughing at your jokes - good or bad.
