I'm a child of God and a mechanical engineering student at Purdue who loves to travel, be outdoors, and get to know new people.
I don't need much, and I always leave a host's home just like I found it (or better, if there's a little work that I can do).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first found it because my college student budget needed cheap accommodations, but I'm staying on it because I've had great experiences getting to know hosts and see cities in unique ways!

Interests

I love being outside, seeing nature's purest beauty.
As an engineer, I like to talk about all kinds of new technologies, but especially cars.
I much prefer to spend time in meaningful conversation instead of staring at a TV.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Completed a weeklong backpacking trip in the Beartooth Mountains of Montana in May. It was a brutal week of trudging through snow, but created many memories that will never be forgotten.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A willingness to do more than take care of myself, whether that be in cooking, cleaning, or doing some repair work.
I love any opportunity to have conversation
I will leave my space at least as clean as I find it.
