In the middle of immigrating to Europe!

I'm a filmmaker, photographer, and writer. Just finished my second documentary film about urban farming around the world.

I'm @karneyh on Instagram and many more photos are here:

Couchsurfing is such a great community!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I've mostly been a surfer - I used CS when I went on tour with my documentary for about two and a half weeks and met a lot of incredible people, and I've also met couchsurfing friends in Costa Rica, Mexico, Bolivia and Peru. I hosted once in Lima, finally. I finally have a house in Portland so I'm able to start hosting finally!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's really not about staying for free anywhere in the world, though that is a bonus. It's it's about the people, the community of like-minded folks. Met great people in several US states, Mexico, Peru, Costa Rica, India, China.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailing the Caribbean, hiking to Macchu Picchu, growing up in Idaho and around the world (I was an airline brat).

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lot of interests from cosmology to nutrition to anthropology.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have an extra bed in my room that my son sleeps in about 4 nights a month, so the bed isn't the problem. But my housemates are not down for having couchsurfers all that often, so there's the hard part. But if you really need a place to stay and you think we have things in common, get in touch!
