CURRENT MISSION

Take everything they told me I had to do too live a good life, and do it my own unique way so I can actually enjoy what this earth has to share

ABOUT ME

I'm a nomad at heart, I try to carry my life on my back and my soul on my feet. I want to see everything that is out there and enjoy myself while I do it. I go west for the winters and stay east for most summers, and I zig zag all over I between. I would love to share any of my stories with those who will listen, and when I have a couch it will always be open!

PHILOSOPHY

Smile everyday, because life could always be worse.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing because I am constantly on the move from April until the start of Fall when I head back to the Rockies. This summer I am traveling through India, Nepal, Thailand, England, Norway and probably a few other countries in between, once I return I'll be wandering the country and exploring every back road I can find. Hoping that I might meet some " Trail Angels" along the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacked through Montana, Wyoming, Colorado. Worked as a Raft Guide on the Colorado River. Taught Snowboarding for 5 years. Backpacked through Europe twice and the Mediterranean as well

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share my stories from the road, I've spent nights under the stars on top of mountains, I slept in hammocks in the forest, and tarps in the middle of a park. My philosophy is to live life from as many perspectives as possible. Experience everything, from every angle. I may be young still but I have done my best to live without regret and while learning everything possible. I am working towards becoming a back country snowboard guide as well as a nature guide. I have some medical training for the back country and plan on expanding that knowledge with every opportunity.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am certified in CPR/ AED for adults/children, I am also certified in Wilderness First Aid. I am relatively confident in my back country knowledge. I also love to cook and would love to trade a good meal for a place to rest my head. I have so many stories from the past few years on the go that I love to share with those willing to listen. I keep to myself and do not bring anything but positive vibes with me.
