Grew up in south central Pennsylvania. Went to college just down the road in Lancaster, PA. Still love the area! I'm always up for a hike, run, or live music. I am happy to give surfers recommendations for hiking, biking, running trails in the Hershey-Harrisburg-Lancaster areas.

I'm excited to be a part of this network and look forward to hosting folks in the "sweetest place on earth", Hershey, PA!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

1. Sharing is caring. We need more of both!
2. Love meeting new people of all different ages who have been to neat places all over the country and all over the world.
3. Micro-adventures and unconventional exploring are the spice of life!
