I am currently traveling for several months before heading to graduate school in the fall. I am a landscape architect, most recently a resident of Richmond, VA, and previously a resident of Yosemite National Park. Fan of mountains, food, coffee, traveling, gardening, conversation, Old Fashioneds, wilderness, cities, and puns.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a couch! Also: it's a fantastic way to travel, meet new people, get to know a new place, and share a known place with others. I have mostly hosted, and it's been a blast.
