About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Working in forestry and exploring the world. Still have 7 US states to go to as well.

ABOUT ME

Love to hike and play outside. Beach volleyball. Ride my bike. Run. Hit up local breweries. See shows. Mostly stay active.

PHILOSOPHY

You can never have too many friends. A stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed a lot, but hope to host more in the future. Looking for a place to live so can't host now.

I love couchsurfing as an organization and will continue to support it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed twice in Ireland and once in Germany and twice in The Netherlands, and in Switzerland. I also went to a Couchsurfing party in The Netherlands. Surfed in Portland, Denver, and Boone,NC. I've gone to some local meetups, but it's been a while.

Interested to see how Couchsurfing has changed after Covid.
