About Me

Not much into partying but really enjoy exploring.

In November 2015 a friend and I began walking from Ushuaia, Argentina. Our goal is to thru-hike the Andes over the next 3 years.

I'm pretty simple, I like hiking, eating, taking naps, and shooting from the hip philosophy.

For everything you could want to know, and more about myself and the hike I am on you can check out our website: www.Her-Odyssey.org

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because Javier Castillo told me I had to!
Between hiking segments we come into towns about once a week to shower, touch base, and resupply for the next leg. It is daunting figuring out who is trustworthy and trying to find safe places to stay.

Interests

  • hiking
  • backpacking
  • thru-hiking
