CURRENT

I am staying with roommates a block from the Chena River 10 minutes walking from downtown Fairbanks in Alaska. Living the dream!

ABOUT ME

I play disc golf a lot, love to play pool, be on the beach, ride my bike, go on hikes and cook delicious food. I'm a huge fan of traveling and exposing myself to new cultures and ideas. I live to help others, and try to make sure that you will remember your experience with me in a positive and fun way.

Originally, I'm from Hubbard Oregon which is about 45 minutes from Portland. I've also spent a lot of my growing up life in the Spokane Washington area. After leaving Spokane at the age of 21, I have lived all over the place. Here are some of them:

* Lahaina, Maui, Hawaii
* Bar Harbor, Maine
* Anchorage and Fairbanks, Alaska
* San Antonio and Dallas Texas
* Telluride, Winter Park, and Denver Colorado
* Jackson Hole, Wyoming
* Park City, Utah
* Driggs, Idaho
* Lake Powell, Page, Arizona
* Presently living in Sandpoint, ID

I've had so many jobs that I have lost track of how many, however I'm quite certain that the number is pushing close to 100. Most of them are tourist based seasonal jobs. I have worked at:

* Snorkel Bobs, a snorkel shop in Maui
* Alaska Railroad for Princess Tours in Alaska
* Chena Hot Springs Resort in Fairbanks
* Taxi Driver in Denver and Jackson Hole
* Rental Ski Tech in Telluride CO
* Hotel shuttle driver in Park City and Telluride
* Forestry services (Logging like a boss)
* Deckhand on various cruise ships
* Customer Service at a porn shop
* Various call center jobs
* So many restaurants that I can't even remember all of them
* You get the idea. If it makes money and potentially is fun, I'll do it!

PHILOSOPHY

Always carry a sharpie. If strangers start talking to you and they are not trying to sell you something, listen to them and embrace their stories!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have crashed a few couches in my lifetime, and whenever I have the space my place is always open to new travelers. Sadly, my current roommate doesn't like to meet new people like I do, so I cannot share my space with strangers. But I would love to meet up with people that are traveling through so feel free to get a hold of me if you want someone to hang out with while your passing through town! Party like a local yo!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like reading about past events, influential people and current events. My taste in music is endless. I'm interested in movies that make you think or have cult followings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have scuba dived the great barrier reef, climbed lava tubes in Maui, flown around Mt Denali in Alaska and wandered through jungles in central America. I love to jump off bridges and cliffs into rivers and lakes, and if I'm not doing something new each day I get bored to death

Teach, Learn, Share

Always have a back up plan!

Good vibes and high fives. If you don't like to cook, you're in luck!
