Update: Hey everyone, I'll be moving around for some time and won't be able to host anyone for a bit of time. I will update this when I'm able to once again.

Try to see some beauty in the world. Maybe capture a bit of it, too, with my camera, art, and writing.

I'm artistic. I write short stories/poetry, play piano, draw/paint, practice photography and videography. I'm also outdoorsy. I enjoy rock climbing, ice climbing, hiking, sky diving, and running. I typically try to bring my camera with me everywhere.

I just wish everyone could get along and live in peace with the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people, learn new things, and help others with their own travels.

Interests

Writing, piano, art, photography, rock climbing, ice climbing, running, hiking.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music. Right now, I really love The Tallest Man on Earth, Fleet Foxes, and the Arcade Fire. I enjoy thought provoking movies or beautiful movies. Although, sometimes I can enjoy the occasional comedy, action movie, or romance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can't pick one, so I'll share a few: I've jumped out of an airplane at night. I've ran a full marathon in a desert (and up a mountain). I've ice climbed a 3-pitch frozen waterfall in Korea. I've driven across the United States 3 times--a different route for each.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my drawing skills, painting skills, photography skills, rock climbing skills, and some running skills. I can try to teach Mandarin, Chinese, but please note that I spoke better Chinese when I was three...
