I am a 21 year old female mechanical engineer who just graduated from the University of Boulder Colorado in the U.S. I am hiking the Te Araroa in New Zealand for the next 4 months and looking forward to meeting FANTASTIC people there!!

Some other things: I am an active hiker/biker, an artist, and an avid reader. I play Ultimate Frisbee, have studied French for 6 years, and love dogs and the outdoors. I am also a vegetarian (flexible) and love to cook and eat food with people (especially making up or trying new recipes). On the whole, I am a sunny, easygoing and independent person. You won't have to babysit me but I welcome the opportunity to meet new people, listen to their stories and explore new places!
