I'm an outdoor enthusiast who is lucky enough to be working in the outdoor industry at the moment. I love hiking, running, the occasional (easy) mountain bike outing, kayaking, breweries, exploring new places, dogs, reading, movies, and meeting new people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a Traveling Trainer for Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics, currently traveling around the country with my friend (also Joe) providing outdoor ethics education to anyone and everyone who can benefit from it. We camp almost every night but sometimes it's nice to meet a local and stay indoors :)
