CURRENT MISSION

To travel in Central America in search of decent waves, fresh fruit and to make you laugh while practicing my beginner Spanish.

ABOUT ME

I've been settled in Portland for the past 7 years. Previously, I spent a number of years living, working, woofing and traveling to different parts of the globe. In every location I made new friends that were willing to feed, house, educate and entertain me about their lives and I am very thankful for that. I love meeting new people so I'm just trying to pay the love forward.

PHILOSOPHY

Bubbles. Lots and lots of bubbles.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've had to take a few years off to complete school and focus on work but I'm excited to start participating again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a number of wonderful people over the years. I haven't had the opportunity to surf much myself, but hopefully that will change this year.

Interests

I'm into all things outdoors - camping, hiking, climbing, surfing waves. I'm also an amateur chicken/duck urban farmer. And I love drinking scotch and eating avocados, although that doesn't have to happen simultaneously. But it could...
