CURRENT MISSION

exhaust myself in the glorious pursuit of life.

ABOUT ME

Nearly ready to start being a grown up. I've spent the last two years exploring, working in the forests of Oregon, Washington, California, Montana and Wyoming, running around a few parts of Africa and enduring the occasional stint of retail servitude to pay the bills. Heading back to school soon to get an MA in environmental studies.
I'm pretty down for almost anything.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a strong believer in karma. I try to only give what I would like to get.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Every host I've encountered has been a gift, and has taught me something. Absolutely no negative experiences.
