ABOUT ME

Boston transplant fighting off bouts of wanderlust.

PHILOSOPHY

The world's too big for any one person, but maybe I can see a bit more of it before I die.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

No better way to experience a location than with the people living there. I've met some amazing people on my travels, and I'm also excited to meet more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visited the island of Heimaey off of Iceland. Two volcanoes, including one that covered part of the 4,000 person village there in the 1970s. Rich history (from 9th century escaped Irish slaves to 17th century Turkish pirates) and millions of puffins. Truly fantastic.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can babble about nature and space for a good while.
