Yo! My name is Izzy.
I was "Un-schooled" in Ohio, and my education was based within the idea of learning how to learn rather than learning facts. My school was the forest and my teachers were many and varied, some furred, some elemental and others of the human kind who were kind and kindred souls.

I have spent the last two years pursuing my career in the arts through traditional methods of schooling and through trial and error have decided to drop out of college and enroll once again in the school of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a job on Vail's Park Crew for the winter but haven't been able to find housing. So instead i've decided to take my adventure to the extreme and take the opportunity to meet new people and experience different ways of life. Stability makes me feel dead inside and I've never CS'd before so i'm taking the plunge!

Interests

I WANT TO DO ALL THE THINGS.
But just to name some of them, Snowboarding, Sculpture, Glassblowing, Welding, Woodworking, Painting Skateboarding, Longboarding, Hiking, Adventuring, Exploring, Hearing Stories, Telling Stories, Reading books, going to shows, rocking my face off, good beer, having conversations, Tattoos, Drawing each other, the list goes on FOREVER.

Music, Movies, and Books

Harry Potter Nerd for life. Anything that transports me from reality. I don't really watch TV or Movies, it clutters my mind. I love A Day to Remember, Rising Appalachia, Bassnectar, Buku, Bring Me the Horizon, and about a million others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hit a 45 foot cannon on my snowboard.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make a million things, I want to learn anything you can teach me, I want to share ideas and knowledge and experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will entertain you forever, I'm a riot and I'm always laughing and joking. I'll buy you beer and talk your ear off for the night.
