I am from a small town in Utah. I study at a University in Provo, Utah. I currently am on an internship in Riga, Latvia. I study Russian and am also planning on studying international relations. I lived in Russia for one year and Kazakhstan for one year. My time spent in those countries has opened my eyes and given me a desire to travel and learn about new cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing to travel to new places and meet new people. I love to learn about different cultures and talk with people in their native languages (right now I only know Russian and English).

Interests

I love to do anything outdoors. My favorite hobbies are fishing and hiking. My hometown have plenty of oppotunities for both. I also love wrestling and jiu jitsu.
