Sorry, not facebook or twitter.

Animal lover, conservationist, and avid traveler. I've worked with animals and been a part of research all over the world. I teach about animal behavior, conservation, and wildlife. I really enjoy being outdoors, being active, and seeing new animals around the world.

Also an artist who works in illustrations, digital paintings, and design. Love painting and drawing.
Photography is a big part of my life. I create wildlife photography as well as nude-nature portraits.

Equally parts funny and serious, I enjoy good banter and conversation about current events.

Lgbt friendly, I believe in equality and treating everyone with respect. I hold no discrimination or prejudice against people and hope to only meet people who feel the same way.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I travel 3-6 months of the year and often look to find a way to save some money while on the road. I also throughly enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds, cultures, and countries. I like to practice my Spanish and help people improve their English.

Finally have a nice place in Bayview, Milwaukee with my partner where I can repay all the generosity I've received over the years by hopefully hosting more guests.
