CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy Montana!

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Massachusetts and I currently live in Montana. I spent the last few years moving around and travelling a whole bunch, but I love Helena and I'm planning to stay here for awhile. In general, I'm a pretty happy and adventurous person.

PHILOSOPHY

Try things out and find what works for you. Be respectful. Keep an open mind.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people whenever I can. I've travelled around most of the United States (and I'm a professional geographer!)... so I'm always happy help people with planning trips in the US and to make suggestions of cool things to see.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've slept on many couches and had many people sleep on my couches. I've hosted a few folks through this site and I love it!
