I am a friendly open person that enjoys meeting new people to share experiences with each other. I have plenty of room in my home and would be more than willing to host a guest. I can tell you about fun local places to go . I live in a great neighborhood that is walking distance from coffee shops, the library, music stores, bars and many other cafes and small businesses. I love to bike ride and I have a few extra bikes and I would be happy to share. If you want to use the bike please bring along a bike lock because I don't have extras of those. I am about a 15 minute bike ride from Summerfest the largest music festival in the world that starts in the end of June and goes until about 10th of July. There are shuttle buses from many bars in the neighborhood willing to bring you back-and-forth to Summerfest. I also have laundry in the basement that you can use. I am a very casual laid-back person . I have a couch and an extra bedroom and can supply bedding and blankets. You can also use my kitchen and towels. I want you to feel at home and not have to ask me every time you want to use the microwave or grab a glass of water. I just ask you to clean up after yourself. I have a dog and would be willing to host a guest with a dog or a cat but only if they're completely trained. I cannot have smoking in the house and it's important to me that guests put the toilet seat down. Please let me know if you're in my area and you need a place to crash.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing because I think it's a great idea. I think you can find out a lot more about a place if you stay with a couch surfing host. Also it makes travel very affordable and gives more people a chance to visit places all over the world. It's just a great idea so I'm in .

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a lot of different kinds of music from Jimi Hendrix to the Grateful Dead and Janelle Monáe and I love watching live music. My favorite movies are Shawshank redemption, death wish with Charles Branson and I love documentaries. My favorite books are the Lord of the rings-best ever!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Bonaroo and stayed up till 6 in the morning watching Warren Haynes play!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach about the area and attractions. I love to learn about different cultures and just how other people live. I can share my couch, extra bedroom, kitchen supplies, the laundry room and bikes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a very casual person that gets along with just about everybody. I have traveled a lot by myself and with my family. I love finding out about new places. I don't need a lot; just a place to crash and a shower. I'm very friendly and would be happy to get to know my host but if you're busy that's fine too .
