ABOUT ME
Hi! Hard to say who I am in a nutshell but currently I am working for an awesome company in California that sends me all over the state leading outdoor trips with a bunch of amazing kids. So fun and challenging and gives me a lot of freedom to travel and explore. Every day is an adventure!
PHILOSOPHY
Be kind and take nothing for granted.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books
I love to read! I come from a family of librarians so it is in the blood. Right now I am mostly into non-fiction. As far as movies go I like the old classics, musicals, silly comedies ala anchorman, and sci-fi. I don't like horror movies or tear jerkers too much. Music makes the world go round and I like it all!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the trips that I do is on the Colorado River and the last day we wake the kids up at 3:30 in the morning to float down to our take out site. We tie all of our canoes together and see the stars and watch the sun come up. So peaceful. I have also swam with dolphins in the middle of the ocean a few times which was the ultimate reminder of my own insignificance in the grand scheme of things. They are so beautiful!
Teach, Learn, Share
I have taught a lot of people to crochet and would love to teach more!
