CURRENT MISSION

To live life to the fullest...on couches everywhere

ABOUT ME

I have worked the grind of the restaurant industry since the age of fifteen. I have recently become unemployed and I'm looking to spend some time exploring the country and finding my true calling in life. I'm an open-minded individual with a big heart and would love to meet new people and hear their life stories.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to experience new people, places and things. I spent many years completely immersed in cooking and the service industry, which was a great experience, but I am ready to experience the next thing. I believe joining this community will be a great way to achieve this!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My interest are diverse and expanding on a daily basis. Meeting new people and doing new things helps me to keep things fresh. Some of my current interests include: writing/journaling, reading, bike riding, hiking/the outdoors, animals, people, music, movies, conversation, cooking, and traveling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I backpacked Kaiser Peak in the Sierra Nevadas, CA. It was an incredible experience. The beauty of the mountains and the accomplishment of reaching the summit was amazing. I would love to have more experiences like this in the future.
