Hey guys I'm from Arizona. I've spent my summer leading a group of 14 year old kids through the Pacific North West. Before that I lived and worked at Phantom Ranch at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. I love climbing, hiking and generally exploring the great outdoors. I've spent my adult life living in National Parks and traveling the United States. I've had a couch surfing account for a few years now, but haven't really done anything with it until now. I'm a really laid back guy and would love to experience my next trip through the eyes of locals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see the country through the eyes of locals! I am planning a trip through the East coast to see what the states are like East of the Mississippi. I will be starting my travels in Nashville, TN and making a huge loop North through St. Louis, Chicago, Michigan, the North East and then all the way back South to the tip of Florida before heading back west through New Orleans, and Texas before ending my trip back in my home state of Arizona.

Interests

I will have all of my climbing gear with me so if there are any climbers out there (or anyone who is interested in learning) I'd love to have a partner.
