CURRENT MISSION

Share my beautiful city and what I've learned in my world travels with fellow couch surfers

ABOUT ME

I've had some incredible adventures courtesy in part from couchsurfing, and I'm looking to help other people with their adventures now too!

I'm a freelance fashion, portrait, and lifestyle photographer who dabbles in graphic design and entrepreneurial ventures. I love to travel, hike, camp, karaoke, play board games, and go out to bars, fashion shows, and other events. Yay!

I really enjoy meeting new people and learning as much as possible about the world both by traveling and hosting. I'm not in a position to offer a couch right now, but I'd love to meet up and show your around!

PHILOSOPHY

"Be careful walking out your front door, you never know where your feet might lead you"
