I feel weird writing bios so here's the one I submit to literary magazines:

Jesse is a queer transmasculine Hufflepuff who adores cats and the smells of green chilé and rain-soaked desert dirt. Jesse uses they/them/theirs pronouns and is a poet and Grey Jedi who believes in the uniting power of adventure.

A few other things about me:
-I work in (adaptive) raft/climb/outdoor guiding
-I am a wilderness EMT
-I am working on visiting as many national parks and other incredible places as possible.
-My cat's name is Mau and she is Wonderful.
-I'm pretty much guaranteed to want to go on a hike or climb or hangout outside.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Learning is pretty great and the way that works best for me to do that is have conversations and get out there, though sometimes anxiety doesn't wanna work with me on that.

I also love traveling but am anti-capitalist so this seems like a great way to go about that. << also reasons why I'm not verified.
