Currently loving the Central Oregon life in Bend, OR! I enjoy exploring the mountains, swimming in the rivers, and enjoying a good brew with friends. I lived in Montana for quite a while to complete my Bachelor's degree in Environmental Biology, and then stayed because I loved it so much. Needing a change of scenery, I moved to Bend with my best friend in July 2019 and have been loving every minute. Skiing, hiking, and finding the best sour ale in town have been keeping me busy! I intend to pursue my Master's of Teaching and work towards teaching High School Biology.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was first introduced to Couchsurfing while studying abroad in Oslo, Norway. I hosted and stayed during that time and hosted a few people while living in Montana, as well. I love the community aspect that couchsurfing has to offer, it's a great way to connect with others.

Love all things Martin Scorcese, but love a good action/sci-fi/superhero move.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving! I've always been afraid of heights so this was a BIG deal. While travelling in New Zealand, I was with a friend who went skydiving all the time, so was there to calm my nerves. What an amazing thing! Doing something that scared me to my core and loving it was a truly empowering milestone in my life.
