Travel. Write. Repeat.

ABOUT ME

I'm a writer. A collector of stories. Travel stories are among my favorites. I travel. I listen. I write.

PHILOSOPHY

Can't we all just get along? (This may sound trite, but really, why is it so hard?)

I host. I surf. It's good.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted several fabulous people while I was in South Korea, all of whom I'm eager to meet up with again down the road. Surfed in Thailand and a bit in the US. Equally good experiences.
