I grew up moving every few years in the United States. I've lived abroad a little and traveled a little more. I like fresh food and dark beer, late nights and early mornings. I like to kayak, ride horses, read long books, hike, do handstands, eat fruit, be in the rain, not wear shoes.

My favorite quote reads: "But most of all, I like the small joys that a simple life brings."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in the middle of a career change, so I'm getting some heavy duty traveling in in between!
