I’m a bit of a nomad at the moment, working as a Wilderness Instructor for NOLS on backpacking and winter courses in Wyoming, New Mexico and Alaska. I am originally from New York and visit often to spend time with my Mom and Grandma, two of my favorite ladies on the planet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have stayed with hosts around the world and have thoroughly enjoyed my stay with each and every one of them. I am overwhelmingly grateful for the incredible generosity I have received in my travels. I have hosted a handful of travelers in the various places I've lived and look forward to hosting many more.

Interests

I love to ski, hike, ride my bicycle, and spend time outdoors as much as possible. I enjoy a good cup of coffee, genuine people, engaging in light hearted conversation, and hearing people's stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2013 I traveled alone for three months around western North America. With a pack on my back I took public transport and found rideshares where possible, couchsurfing the whole way. It was pure magic and shifted the course of my life, my values, and my investment in living a life I am proud of.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to adventure outside! Backpacking, backcountry skiing, some light rock climbing and more.
