I lived in a small town in Montana, USA for 12 years. I graduated UC Berkeley 3 years ago and am now a project manager at a greywater recycling systems company in Fremont, California. Hope to travel to each continent before I'm 30! I like to volunteer in my spare time, medium-rare steaks, and baking ugly cookies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and learn about a city's culture/history/gastronomy through the eyes of a local.

You don't really get a chance to meet and live with a complete stranger here in the States, unless of course you rent out your house as an Airbnb.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like the band Mouse Rat :)

Currently, am trying to revive an old college book club. First book: A Man Called Ove.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've almost gotten eaten by a bear.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am insatiably curious and want to try everything once. I learned how to change my headlights, knit socks, build a wooden calendar, play the flute/clarinet/piano, snake a bathtub, and build a website...

...and yet I find it impossible to learn how to swim!
