About Me

I love outdoor adventures! Especially rock climbing, bike riding, surfing, and ski touring.
I also like fiction and working on projects with friends. I try to find ways to make the world better through my work, but that is a lofty ambition.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently in transition between cities, but am in the process of establishing permanent roots. Last time I was in that position, I loved hosting couch surfers (through an account that I can't remember the email or password for) - I loved getting to travel socially even when I had to stay in one place.
