About Me

I'm back on the road for the first time in a looong time, though I have been to almost all the states in my years roving. I'm traveling and camping out of my faithful tank of a car. I'm pretty self-reliant and usually use couchsurfing as a way of seeing new cities and getting shown around and hangin out! I love to hike, explore abandoned buildings, walk dogs, cook, read graphic novels, climb, paint, and beer. Yes, I used beer as a verb. In my experience, getting to know a new place is better with rad locals to guide your way. And if there's anything I can do to help people out while I'm there, I'm more than happy to pitch in. So you don't necessarily have to open your couch to me, since I usually crash out in Arcturus (my ride), though I do love me some bathroom/kitchen access. Some people have time to hang out and some don't and it's all good! I'm flexible on the situation and mostly just like to chill with other chill folks :] Wal-Mart parking lots get boring after a while and I'm scared of bears, so this is better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This community has provided me with nothing short of incredible people, both hosts and surfers. I am happy it's still going strong. I used to have a lot of old-school verifications, but since they didn't transfer over, I'm always glad to provide reviews from my current contacts if my profile doesn't seem forthcoming enough.

Interests

Books, animals, dark humor, food, exploration, scientific discussion, food, deviancy, skies, food, cider, and making people laugh. Food. Foooood.
