I am currently in the midst of a extensive cross country journey with my girlfriend. We are living out of the back of a jeep and are trying to get a feel of the nation. I recently graduated college with a degree in education and am taking a little time off before I find myself a more permanent career in my field. Apart from traveling I am very fond of reading, hiking, outdoor puttering about of various sorts, and music, both the listening and the production of.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find that I can connect more with areas when I have some sort of personal connection with the region . I like the sharing of ideas and getting the local perspective on places. That, and I am tired of having the sleep in truck stops every night (Or in national forests if I can find them, that's more pleasant). If you have a driveway I could park my jeep/home in that would be wonderful, if you had a shower that would be stupendous. I don't have an adjective powerful enough to describe the degree of my elation if you would have a couch/comfortable floor that we could sleep on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed up some big things.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes? (This question is very ambiguous, not sure if this is what they were looking for) Anyway, I am limited on resources that I can share but I can help with household projects or other sorts of labor that needs to be done.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my ability to work on projects and can share my capacity for preforming manual labor. Also, my charming personality. And Rice.
