I love adventure, new people, new places, and more stories to tell. I am always up for traveling, and learning from other people, and I believe family will bring healing to the world. I love to love others, and bring peace and joy to every environment I am in.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started couchsurfing as a free place to stay when I traveled, and it has become much more than that. I have learned so much from my hosts, and from inviting people into my home over the years. I love hospitality, and being a part of the journey for travelers, and I am beyond grateful for all of the friends I have met while I wander.

Interests

I am in love with life, and all life giving experiences. In the summer I can be found on the side of a rock... climbing, or floating down a river. More nights than I can count are spent porch sitting, and backyard bbq'ing. People are a way of life.
In the winter I love making it up the mountain to snowboard. I have also dabbled in a few ice climbing, XC skiing, snowshoeing , mountain exploring adventures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've taught adventure therapy classes, and used the outdoors to challenge and build people up. I've also taught horticulture therapy classes in Hawaii, and met some lifelong friend as I hitchhiked the islands.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've taught most things outdoors. I L O V E to teach people what I'm passionate about, and watch people challenge themselves, and fall in love with a new experience or hobbie. I love eating and cooking well, and I am always up to pass on a recipe (samples included) and teach people how to cook. I love creating, and teaching people how to tap into their artsy side.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I enjoy sharing life stores, wisdom from my twenty-seven years, and a good cup of coffee. Experiences are made by the people in them, and just about everything is better shared.
