I have worked on a small organic farm for the past five years and I absolutely loved it. I enjoy being outside and staying fit. I am very into olympic lifting and I love to kayak and swim. I also enjoy blacksmithing and carpentry as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it is a great way to get around and meet people and I love doing both those!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Gone on a canvas canoe trip through Penobscot bay in Maine for three weeks. It was the most amazing time I have ever had. Ask me and I can talk for a long time about all the experiences!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a lot of farming experience as well as several trips overseas. 8 months in Ghana, 5 months in Tanzania, an accidental appearance in Canada.... and a month in Costa Rica. I love creating things with my hands and could talk for hours about my time in the wilderness. I am very willing to do chores or anything that needs done!
