I am an Eagle Scout, graduated with a Bachelor's in Accounting, and have worked a number of jobs, including kayaking guide, insurance sales, non-profit fundraising, international service trip director, and a few more. If I had all the time and money in the world, I might try to be a professional musician. I am very interested in psychology and philosophy, and am planning on getting a Master's in Counseling next. I've WWOOFed for a month, and have enjoyed it a ton, and am currently looking forward to traveling in Europe for a month before coming back home to work again.

I’m just getting started with Couchsurfer and I hope to host more when I get back to the States!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel without the feel of hotels and businessy or touristy things. I like the idea of meeting new people and making genuine connections while traveling. Some of the most meaningful connections I've had have come from people I've stayed with for free or for a little work exchange. It's a great thing to do, and strangers connecting in positive ways is a great part about being human.
