About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Look at me, look at me, hands in the air like it's good to be alliiivve!!!

ABOUT ME

I like to laugh at any and everything, including myself.I love to travel and be out of my comfort zone and meeting new people and places is how I like to spend my time when not with good friends. I'm happy at whatever I'm doin and love meeting others like that.

PHILOSOPHY

Put time and effort into having fun rather than having things.
I want to make a memorable and positive difference in those that I meet and for them to pass on that energy to others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to host a lot with our old household and was the ambassador for the city of Reno. However, I've been out of the country and living abroad unable to host. Now that I'm back in America and have a place of my own I'm happy to host again and give advice to people when I can about SF.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Some of the best experiences I've ever had. Also a few frustrating ones where guests come with no desire to see the area and don't go out for fear of spending money. If someone is going to stay with me, I would prefer they would be willing to go explore and go out to eat some good food that SF has.

Interests

Going to live shows, living for the moment. Reading. The simpsons. Being in places where I dont know whats going on and having to figure it out. Learning from new places and things. Good beer. Laughing and enjoying where I'm at.

Music, Movies, and Books

Whoa! Alot. TV on the Radio. Chili Peppers, Flaming Lips, Black Keys, Radiohead, Gnarls Barkley. Kings of Leon. The Strokes. Wilco. And on and on. Books and movies are pretty damn great too. I'm a literature major so if anyone comes to crash on our couch we can talk about books and beers over a bbq as long as you would like.
