Hello! I am traveling through Europe beginning at the end of August 2019. I am from Portland, OR USA. I bought a one-way ticket and my trip is open-ended!

As of November '19, I’ve been to Berlin, through Poland, Stockholm, Budapest, into Slovakia, through Ukraine, Moldova, and now currently in Romania. Next I will go to Nice, France, and then hope to make my way to Spain and Portugal. Or maybe not?? Where should I go! ;) Also on my radar are Istanbul and Israel!

Interests: I like techno music, am interested in gardening, composting, natural landscapes, and exploring.

Recently I have also been learning Spanish! I'd love to practice both my Spanish and my German speaking skills. Or whatever language someone wants to teach me some words in!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in a new way of traveling, one where I can slow down and experience people in the culture. I want to learn from others!

The more I experience other travelers and cultures the more love I have for all people.

Interests

I love all things to do with gardening! Growing things is cool!!

I love techno shows! Big hypnotic/dark/industrial/melodic/journey techno nerd. As a hobby I’ve been a casual bedroom DJ for the last few years and am really passionate about good techno. At home me and my friends have cultivated a little DJ collective and we put on shows.

I love cats and other animals!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite podcast is the Tim Ferriss Show
I listen to a lot of techno and electronica music.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn cooking tips! I am trying to teach myself to enjoy the process of cooking. Cooking with others is the best way to learn :)

I can explain about how to DJ and how to make a home worm compost bin! I can share music.
