Hello fellow travelers! Just caught the travel bug and entering the world of couch surfing. I am hoping to support the sharing economy, connect to others in a more meaningful way and have/help others get a more authentic experiences in a given place. I love cooking, being outdoors, seeing art and generally like living my life spontaneously. Let's hang :)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I believe in the spirit of communalism and sharing as a way to reduce resource use AND bring people together. Travelling is not just less expensive but also a richer experience when you can meet people who live in the area you are visiting. I'm a respectful and low-maintenance guest. Whether you go to sleep early or like to hang out late, I can do either :)
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Alternative, Folk, Chillwave, Electronica, Psychadelic, Surf Rock Movies: Anything character driven Books: The Namesake, Wild, Harry Potter (obvi), lots of food writing
What I Can Share With Hosts
FOOD! I cook. You eat. It will be delicious. I love sharing yummy, healthy vegetarian food with great people. If you think cooking with others is fun then even better! I will get the ingredients and beer :)
