Overview
About Me
Hello! I am living in Colorado and loving it! On weekends, you'll find me hiking, camping, climbing (learning) swimming and whatever else I can get into! I used couchsurfing a lot while I was travelling so I would like to help out as much as I can!
I lived in Korea 2013-2014 (I taught for one year) and the Philippines 2014. I've been to Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines and several countries in Europe but I'm always keen to see more. 2015, I bought a car and went on several long distance road trips all over the USA including Seattle, Chicago, Toronto, New York, Ohio, and Texas! I spent the end of 2015 touring Europe. I lived in Colombia for over a year!
I went to university in Oregon. I have my bachelors in psychology.
I want to visit Argentina!

A wise person once told me - "Couchsurfing is not a free hostel and it's not a dating website." I hope to find someone who wants to spend time together. Not every moment, but showing me your favorite bar or a park you enjoy is a really nice way to know a place. I usually don't have a plan when I go somewhere but I am always open to trying new things. If there's a hiking trail, camping trip or a new bar that you have wanted to try, I'm your person.

Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: I studied psychology and I'm interested in all topics pertaining to it. I know a fair amount about rocks, crystals and minerals and I love going rockhounding. I know how to sew and embroider and can teach you if you're interested.
Learn: I have recently learned a bit about energy healing and I would really like to learn more. I would love to learn about gardening and sustainable food practices. I'm always asking questions, wanting to learn, but they're not always the right ones. Anything you would like to teach, I'm open to.
Share: food, drink, resources, laughter, stories
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm very sociable and I really appreciate the kindness of others! I make a mean Macn'cheese, so maybe I'll make some for you :) I also have some interesting stories from my time in Asia to share!
