CURRENT MISSION

I'm relocating my life to Seattle!! I have a job, but Landlords want to meet me before I can get an apartment, so I'm looking for a place to crash for a couple days while I meet with Landlords etc BEFORE my job starts.

ABOUT ME

Hello! My names Pete, I'm a college graduate, a musician, a writer, a community organizer, and a non-profit worker. I'm very easy going, hard working, and prone to naps.

PHILOSOPHY

We have one shot at living, might as well be nice to each other and have a damn good time while we're here

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently only through surfing, but hopefully hosting once I get an apartment set up! If you allow me into your home, I can cook (I'm vegan but I can cook almost anything), clean, entertain, work in your garden/yard, fix small things in your house (if materials are provided), or draw you a picture or write you a poem or something.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only with friends and relatives before now, in such exotic locales as Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Sacramento, Olympia and Yelm. I got to stay in a Bikers garage in Yelm, that was a lot of fun, it was my girlfriends friends dad. I helped clear some of the timber that was in his yard and took care of the dog while he was at work. Baltimore was great, its a really cool city if you have someone there to guide you and show you whats what, I helped my friend move from his old apt to his new one, only took about 1 day too!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled to Galena, Alaska and helped the people who lived there recover from a flood caused by an Ice Jam in the Yukon River. It was pretty incredible and gave me an interesting view into the lives of people living in Alaskan Villages.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to hand Sew, mend clothing, and even resize your own pants!

I can also help you out writing papers, or even grading papers if your a prof! Although there might be some issues of academic integrity there.
