CURRENT MISSION

after a year of living in prague, i'm heading back home to the states. but not without a bit more traveling! i'll be traveling north to wwoof in norway for about a month. looking forward to meeting some cool people along the way.

in general, i'd like to learn to skateboard.

ABOUT ME

an oregonian at heart, i'm a bit quiet at first, but warm up after a bit of coffee or beer. i studied studio art and photography in college, with a smattering of religious studies courses on the side (my favorite being one on alien religions). i'm an avid reader and try to journal daily. a bit of a podcast nut, i tend to go on little tangents about recent episodes i've listened to, whenever the opportunity presents itself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

surfing and meeting people. swapping stories.

i've hosted in the past, and plan on doing it again. i just have to set my stuff down and call some place home first.
