ABOUT ME

I'm an outdoor enthusiast and enjoy learning about new cultures. Whether the adventure is for pleasure or research I'm there! Snowboarding, white water kayaking, and backpacking are a few of my passions, and I also thoroughly enjoy research adventures, whether it's for volcanology or natural resource management.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love getting to know people who have a passion for travel and community-building. It's always a blast to hear their stories and aspirations in life because it gives me the energy to explore the world and everything it has to offer.
