COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in Kodiak, Alaska for a summer teaching environmental education to the cutest kids I have ever met. While there I had the opportunity to fly in a float plane, have several exhilarating run-ins with Kodiak Bears, go sea kayaking, fishing, and I met amazing people. After my job there was done, I worked in Canyonlands National Park for a season. The desert is astoundingly beautiful; watch out for mountain lions and don't step on the crypto-biotic soil!
