I'm from Los Angeles. I've spent the last few months of my life either in Philipsburg, MT or Rochester, MN.

I'm about to start an adventure up the Appalachian Trail.

I have had 3 different homes in the last 3 months. Now, I am about to add a 4th, my tent.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love people and I want to make new friends and see what's out there. I am a stranger to this world, and this world is a stranger to me too.
