ABOUT ME

Hey there! I am college student at Colorado College who has traveled in all sorts of ways. I love to travel with the idea of fuel efficiency in mind, such as bicycling and walking. I have ridden my bicycle across America which proved to be my favorite way to travel, traveled around Vietnam and Laos, volunteered in Borneo Indonesia at an Orangutan Orphange, and I also solo hiked the 225 mile John Muir Trail in the Sierra's. I like to make functional ceramic pottery and knit clothing. I love practicing and teaching yoga. I grew up in the city, but my heart lays in the wilderness and rural areas. Crashing on anyones couch, or floor, would be a honor. See ya later!

PHILOSOPHY

Enlightenment resides in all beings. Through mental and physical practice, we are capable of removing the distraction in our lives that cause us pain, and see and feel the light within.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Due to my traveling through out the year, I have been surfing instead of hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed across America when I rode across the country on my bicycle in 2011. I also met up with a Couch Surfer in Vietnam for New Years 2012, and crashed on a couch in Bangkok Thailand.
