I'm shy at first but warms up. I'm an ENFJ if you study personalities. When I'm not working, I rather be outside in nature exploring with my dogs. I love food and learning how to make it or cook it. If I could have any job, I would want to be like Anthony Bourdain and travel the world to meet people, learn their culture, and eat how their food is prepared.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I signed up looking for alternate places to stay while traveling. I've always heard about couchsurfing but never tried it. I would love to meet new people, make friends, and learn more from others and the world.

Interests

I'm a foodie! I also enjoy wilderness backpacking to remote areas to experience nature and seclusion. I love learning how to make food...as in my own yogurt, kimchi, pickles, icecream. Right now I'm playing with making my own kombucha.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I summited to the top of the United States (of the lower 48) at Mt. Whitney with my friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my experiences of food and the outdoors and how to get started. I can teach the basics on backpacking, making primitive fire, and wilderness preparedness.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Respectfulness of space and tidying after myself. Conversation about backpacking in the wilderness and sharing knowledge of whatever I know.
