Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To use travel to clear my mind and have invigorating experiences. Travel always reinvigorates my spirit, and leaves me feeling better connected to this beautiful world.
ABOUT ME
I'm a 32-year old working in a great hospital, preparing to go back to school for nursing. I'm a volunteer ski-patroller, firefighter, EMT, and Search-and-Rescuer. I'm always looking to be around positive, happy people.
I Love being active, both in the wilderness, and exploring new cities. I love learning about new cultures and their histories.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe we all have the choice between sharing a full life, or living an empty life alone. I'm always trying to let people into my life and heart. Everyone has a great story if they want to. I want to hear it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It's always an amazing experience to connect with locals, who want to share their homes, experience and passion!
