About Me

I love to have fun, enjoy the outdoors, and learn new things. (Ya...the nerd who loves school). I have pretty varied interests from art to science, and think it is so cool how they are truly interconnected rather than completely separate fields of interest.

I am currently living in central Oregon where there is a plethora of outdoor activities. I love being able to go on a hike or hit the river after work. Hiking and camping are my favorite outdoor activities.

My other passion is dancing of all sorts. I mainly know salsa and bachata dancing, but would love to learn more. I can't dance without smiling.

One of my favorite things to do is have a group of people over for game night.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it is so important to get know people from all walks of life with a variety of points of view, interests, and experiences. If you just stay in your own little bubble - you are missing out on so much and can't understand the world around you.

I am relatively introverted, and couch surfing is a great way to push myself out of my comfort zone to meet new people, and discover and explore new places.
