Hi! I go by Spencer (they/them) and I live with my partner Jason (he/they) and our two sweet dogs!
Jason is an Oregon native, works a 9-5 and likes to be outdoors on the weekends.
I've lived in Portland on and off for about 9 years and think this city is a pretty awesome place to visit. I'm a low key person and enjoy sharing food and good conversation. If I've got something going on that you can come to I'll let you know, but I usually just leave guests to their own devices. I've had great experiences traveling to other countries, and look forward to more. I hope to pass those experiences on to other travelers here. I'm open to folks staying a night or two on my couch, I generally max out at 3 nights because the space is small. We have two sweet old dogs who will love to give you side eye and sniff you for treats. Happy to drive out to gorge, go for a bike ride or show you some beautiful local hikes is our schedules allow. Drink good beer and eat good food of course!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the best thing about travel is meeting new people, and couch surfing is a great way to get the most out of traveling to a new city. I find that people from all over have more things in common than in difference, so it’s wonderful to spend time with new people from different places and cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking the two day hike out to Tiger Leaping Gorge from Lijiang was pretty incredible!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook for others and will gladly cook a delicious vegan meal to share! I play a little ukulele but I'm very rusty.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook and bake vegan food, and I always do the dishes afterwards ;) If you have children who are studying English I’d also be willing to help them study if they are interested, or even babysit if the parents want a night out. I also love animals!
