I am always looking to make new friends and have new adventures. I love to travel and I am often solo. I have found Couchsurfing to be an amazing way to experience my journey. I am a bit shy, but I will be chatty before long. I have a lot of stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here to meet people and share good times. I enjoy experiencing places I visit through the unique lens of my CS host. I try to share my unique lens with CS surfers. I both host and surf, trying to maintain a good balance.

I am an introvert that prefers company, so it helps me to have a platform to connect with others. I've met a lot of awesome people here, so I'm sticking with it.

My gratitude, stories and friendship. I would love to have a drink or share a meal with you. I might as well bring something I like such as beer, wine, cheese, chocolate, pizza or peanut butter filled pretzel nuggets.
