About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am a nice girl from the west coast, Seattle to be exact. You can take the girl out of Seattle but you can't take the "seattleness" out of the girl. or something like that. I can be kind of reserved, but it depends a lot on the situation, how comfortable I am with people. and all of the travelling/moving around I have done has made me more outgoing over time!

The adventure continues; My fiancé and I just moved to San Diego, California. We are rehabbing a house, and creating ÖkoDorfPB, an eco-friendly community.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been a Couchsurfer since 2008. I've seen how CS can function as such an open and inviting community. I've been disappointed by the website's trajectory in the past years, but I know there are still great people seeking hosts and inviting travelers into their homes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with CSers all over Europe, Morocco, and Canada.

I've hosted in various places that I've lived: Montreal, Paris, Lopez Island, WA, and Madrid

Interests

I love drinking mint tea and coffee. I love hiking and yoga. I love learning languages (French, Spanish and German).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Morocco!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am continuously learning French, Spanish and German. I have a preference to host native speakers of these languages who can help me improve.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook vegetarian food.
