I am from a small mountain town in California. I grew up ski racing and hiking and I love to be in nature. I also enjoy cooking, playing the mandolin, speaking Spanish, reading poetry, spending time out doors and most importantly, meeting new people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and an experience the incredible things this world has to offer through honest human contact.

Hitchhiked and bussed from Kenya to South Africa

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been teaching myself the mandolin over the past few months and would love a chance to play with any one and get some tips. I have also worked in kitchens over four summers and can teach you what I know or just cook you a meal. If I am hosting you it will probably be near mountains and in that case I can take you out and give you some free lessons on skiing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to share meals, music and thoughts
