About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an extremely laid back person that enjoys a variety of social situations. I'm happy in large crowds, with a few folks or hanging out by myself (I've done a lot of solo travel.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm willing to host and have surfed (through other similar sites.) I also have extensive knowledge of the town I live in though and am happy to show people around or have a drink/coffee/meal with them. I also frequently attend the local CS get togethers.
