CURRENT MISSION

Grow, learn, live, love, travel.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy frolicking around in nature, live music (anything from folk to heavy metal) and exploring the funky parts of towns. I'm open-minded to perspectives different from my own and have an easy-going demeanor so I tend to get along with most people I meet.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life to its fullest and try not to do too much harm in the process. If you can help someone or make the world a better place in the process, even better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Finally got a home so I
can host! We are both vaccinated. Still may need a bed in my own travels. Open to hangout as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2010/2011 I had three homes I stayed at: with a college student in Asheville, NC, a teacher in Prescott Valley, AZ, and a couple in Seattle, WA. I'm embarrassed that I have forgotten all their names by now, but they were all wonderful people. Thank you if you're out there! My current profile shows my more recent travels.

Interests
