About Me

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in the Redwoods of Humboldt, where I attended an arts-oriented, world-travel encouraging, college preparatory high school. While there, I completed the International Baccalaureate Programme. My school opened up opportunities to visit Biskops Arno in Sweden (while also spending time in Stockholm and Uppsala) and journey through France. Nowadays, I'm situated in Northern Oregon, but wanderlust hasn't died yet, and ending up where I've never been before is always preferable.

PHILOSOPHY

De Beauvoir. Sartre. Radhakrishnan. Lao Tsu.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm quiet initially, but after mumbling my way through greetings I make excellent conversation. I cook, clean, and mend clothing rather well, so if there are any chores I can take care of, just let me know.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed in a cottage in the Loire Valley, where my group helped out with farm chores.
