About Me

I am currently backpacking South America. I have been slowly learning Spanish for years and I would love to practice and improve as I travel.

love to travel, as I am sure everyone on this site does. So far I have mostly traveled in the US: Hiking in Yosemite, eating bagels in NYC, exploring Alcatraz prison in San Fran to name a few. I've also toured the Doge palace in Venice, walked the winding streets of Alfama district in Lisbon Portugal, and skied the slopes around Quebec City. I look forward to many more travels ahead!

I find geopolitics and international affairs fascinating. When I meet someone it's always nice to know a little about where they are from no matter where that is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It seems like a great way to travel. Making connections and getting local insight into the great places you are visiting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Caving in Chattanooga, TN was a pretty amazing experience. From the 75ft underground waterfall to squeezing through the 'birth canal' passage it did not disappoint. We slept in the cave and they even made us breakfast!
