About Me

I'm constantly learning about the world and myself and enjoy a good challenge. I'm open to new ideas and adventures, and love sharing stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a free spirit looking to see more of the world in a unique way and meeting up and sharing with the people who most closely know the environment is the best way I can think of!

Interests

Traveling, of course. I enjoy nature more than cities, but cities sometimes have a special, impressive quality as well. I also enjoy reading, writing, painting, hiking, climbing, roaming around. I love hearing stories and learning new things.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music- Almost anything with rhythm, from oldies to reggae to folk and foreign and everything in between!

Movies- Independent films are the way to go for a good story that makes me think. Disney/Pixar are my comfort movies, they make me happy every time.

Books- Cloud Atlas, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, anything by Vonnegut, Catch-22, Italo Calvino short stories... to name a few.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked Angel's Landing at Zion National Park by myself in order to conquer my fear of heights. It worked.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English, I'd love to learn bits of any other language while travelling, and I can share anything you'd like.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Almost anything, hopefully a good laugh.
