I'm a born-and-raised Oregonian, so nature is my first home, and honestly, I am a literal tree-hugger. I have a big family that means the world to me, and consider my friends to be family too! I love connecting with new people, and am super curious about everything. I've also been called an adrenaline junkie - but come on, it's so much more fun that way! I'd choose weird food and sky diving over the familiar any day. )

I’m pretty energetic and like to stay active and explore, but also love having mellow conversations over a cup of tea. I love animals too, and have a big dog at home that does everything with me (so if you have pets that’s awesome!).

Mostly, I just love life and want to experience all it has to offer! I'm trying to find my way in life, or my mission, as I think most people are. I think we're all in this together, and it's just about connecting, sharing, and contributing. My philosophy is that we all have power to make a difference <3

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I am looking into graduate programs and have heard wonderful things about Scandinavia (most recently from my travels in Asia where I met many people from Norway and Sweden). I’d love to explore with locals and try ALL the things :) - eat tons of food, hike, explore, learn about the culture and history, try new activities.

I'm looking to travel and meet people! What better way than staying with locals? I am so interested in couchsurfing as a way to experience a place, and would love to go on adventures with other people - not just by myself.

I am a local of Bend, Oregon, which has amazing nature and adventure all around it, so I know how awesome it is to get the insider take on things:)

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I think we can all teach and learn from each other! I know (some) about literature, philosophy, nutrition + veganism, anthropology.

I'd love to learn about local culture, how to build (I’m learning woodworking now), about sustainable communities + processes, at least two more languages, neuroscience, astronomy, programming and lots more.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

Great conversation + sense of humor ;) I am down for exploring and hiking anywhere. I’ll also help with cooking, beers, US travel tips, and share my love of adventure, culture, books, and experiencing new things!
