I'm a college student from the United States. I've lived in Spain and traveled across Central and Western Europe. I'm currently helping teach culture classes at my local University at Montana State. I want to learn more about other cultures, food, music, people, places, and things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My favorite thing is a new thing. The world has so much to offer, and it's so easy to get bogged down and trapped in one place. But we live in a great time for travel and the world is only becoming more connected. So what a better way to immerse myself in the world then to be on CouchSurfing.

Interests

Hiking, Camping, Traveling, learning.

I really enjoy everything from debating on philosophy to extreme sports to taking a walk in the park. Anything with good company is my preferred day.

Teach, Learn, Share

Words are only 7% of our communication process.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to jam out with some music. (I can help a little bit with some free styling and blues riffs on the guitar).

Stories of traveling (the entirety of the United States while living out of my car.)
(My adventures in Europe and living with a Spanish family) The United States (living in one of the most pristine parts of the world for nature)

Someone to listen. I'm really just a sponge for new stories and thoughts. I love hearing opposing opinions and seeing if we can come to a middle ground.

I love to cook! I have a few dishes I really like to cook hosts and maybe you could teach me something from where you're from!
