I grew up in a small town in the state of Texas, USA. Most of my friends have never left our hometown and that's exactly why I travel. To explore the world, understand cultures, and summit as many mountains as possible. I love to climb & trek and if I am coming to your country I will be doing both. I'm on a mission as many of us are to see every country in the world and stay open to all possibilities along this journey. Pura Vida~

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to be engaged with a like minded community. The backpackers code. To spread the love of humanity and bring everyone a little closer. So many amazing cultures and people on one little rock!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reggae music because of the positive message it sends. Something that is definitely needed in most parts of the world. If I watch movies it is usually documentaries on extreme sports/traveling. Books...love Mark Twain, Henry Thoreau, John Muir, Ansel Adams. Currently reading "The Secret Life of Trees: How they Communicate"
Yes...I love trees.
