ABOUT ME

I grew up in a small town on a large island in Washington. I moved to Portland to go to college and stayed in the city to work after I graduated. This summer I got to travel around Europe for a couple of months then this fall I drove across the US for the first time! I'm back at work now and even though I love my job I always think about where I want to travel next.

I like cooking breakfast, being outside, and playing pool.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to meet any couchsurfers who are in town and want someone to talk to or show them around. I definitely aspire to someday host people as well but right now I don’t have a couch available.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven’t done any travelling since I signed up for couchsurfing so I don't have any yet! I’m planning on attending a Portland meet-up very soon though.

Interests

I love hiking and camping, but I don’t like to leave civilization for too long because I also love to cook and bake. An ideal Saturday for me involves making a quick breakfast with some good coffee, going on a hike at Mt. Hood or the Oregon coast, then coming home and making dinner with my friends.
