CURRENT MISSION

Forge deep intimate connections with people to create space for mutual love and support. That sounds ridiculously cheesy, but I’ve realized recently I’d rather have one soul-igniting best friend than 1000 okay friends.

ABOUT ME

I’ve found over the past couple years that, all the experiences a person can have don’t mean much unless you can share them with people you love and care about. I have always had a difficult time being vulnerable with friends, and Couchsurfing helps strip away some of the surface level and provides an environment for deeper connections off the bat, whether they be fleeting or lasting. I genuinely want to get to know you, whoever you are.

I love live music, climbing, reading sci-fi, learning about mental health, talking through the nitty-gritty of human existence, but I also like to be goofy, get into trouble, and try new things.

I rarely say no to trying something new and love me a good extrovert who wants to pull me by the collar to go do it. Help me brainstorm some weird things to do together. I love a good scheme.

I strive to be an open book, but I there are definitely pages that have gotten stuck together over the years. Looking to peel those apart and see what’s hidden.

HOSTING

I depend on my surfers to come with ideas, thoughts, and feelings on what sounds fun/fulfilling to you since I'm also exploring this city with you. You'll be hard pressed to find an activity or place I wouldn't be down to explore. Couchsurfing is a collaborative effort— let’s make some magic together.

🏳️‍🌈Queer, and while I won’t host anyone that’s not okay with that, I’m still down to get to know you if you are passing through.

If you ask me to host you, please include in your message the title/artist of a song that moves you.

PHILOSOPHY

Try everything at least once. I rarely say no to new experiences. The weirder the better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because you see just how big the world is when you travel, but meeting other Couchsurfers makes it feel a little smaller and a little less lonely to know there are so many other people continually wandering the world.

Everyone has something to share that you will not find in another person. I couchsurf to find those things and let others find them in me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ran a half marathon on the Great Wall. It solidified that I will never run a full marathon.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make you breakfast, send you my Spotify playlists, go on a longboard ride with you, recommend books, talk about just about anything, and share thoughts on the universe. I want to listen to you life story and ask you to think really deeply about why you do and think the things you do; I’m so interested in how our minds work.
