ABOUT ME

My favorite city is Seattle, though I live in the Bay Area. I love to travel to new cities, hand draw a street map, and then set out to explore. Usually I get lost but I suppose that's part of the fun. I love trying new restaurants, cafes, and meeting people in random places.

PHILOSOPHY

All I need for happiness is good food, music and walking shoes

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've couchsurfed around the US in a number of places with a ton of awesome hosts. At long last, I finally have my own place and can host so I'm excited to be on the flip side of CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was thrown into the world of couchsurfing when I went on a month-long roadtrip with a few friends around the US in June 2010. Out of the entire month, we only paid for housing twice - otherwise, we lived off the generosity of friends, family, or couchsurfing hosts. I was intimidated and amazed by the lives that our hosts lead. Their lives are so incredibly inspiring, and I'm hoping to meet even more people when I travel again.

Since then I've CSed with people for various vacations - always a great way to see a city through a local's eyes!

Intereses

When I travel, I enjoy walking around residential areas and eating at local restaurants. At home, I love hanging out with friends, running, swimming, rock climbing, eating massive amounts of fruit, and searching for music.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Tubing down the Guadalupe River with friends and a cooler of beer was pretty awesome. A friend of a CS host in Omaha sang and played guitar and I was blown away. I was in a descending plane on July 4th and saw hundreds of little fireworks going off simultaneously.
