I'm an American nomad, constantly seeking new experiences and new friends. Currently backpacking South America

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couch surfing is the best way to travel, hands down. I've hosted travelers through my home and done some amazing things with the help of surfers who've hosted me. It doesn't get better (or cheaper) when traveling.

Interests

I love the outdoors: camping, climbing, hiking- point me in the right direction, or come with me!- but I also enjoy a night out in the city

Music, Movies, and Books

whoah big question. Catch 22, Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, The Stranger, Lolita, Lord of the Rings, Dharma Bums; Wes Anderson movies, Tarantino, Kubrick, Lynch, the Cohen brothers...
For music, let's just say that I DON'T like much country music, and I don't listen to much pop music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I left my home behind to seek new adventures

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a professional English teacher! I can teach you very technical grammar, or just help you practice your speaking. I’ve also picked up some skills along my travels (amateur carpentry/woodworking, social media and digital marketing, some rudimentary cooking) that I’d be happy to put to use.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can share a beer or a bottle. We can share a conversation and some laughs. We can share ideas and teach one another about ourselves and our respective cultures. Let's share an experience
