I've learned with time that every plan I ever make will go out the window about 2 minutes into it, so I've stopped trying. The first thing I do when I'm in a new place is wonder around and go to whatever looks interesting. I rarely travel with plans.
I am currently living in Scotland, but I'm originally from the USA.
I am a triathlete and former hammer thrower.
I love cycling, swimming, hiking, being near the sea - pretty much anything outdoors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, especially with different cultures, backgrounds, and opinions to my own.
It has encouraged my trust in others and opened me up to new adventures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived on an island in Sierra Leone working with men and women who partake in the oyster fishery learning about their practices, needs, and desires. I now know some Mende, so I can teach you words/phrases such as "how are you?", "water", "goat"
