Left my van by the river in bend Oregon to live in Mexico City for a while.

I caught the traveling bug when I went to Nepal for a few months a couple years back. Though I can't travel quite as much as I want to at the moment, I take every opportunity I can! From big international trips, to local road trips, to showing other travelers around my local area, I love everything to do with travel!

I'm passionate about well... too many things to say the least, a short excerpt would be philosophy, music, reading, the outdoors, meditation, equality, environmentalism, and minimalism.

The most important things to me are pretty simple; doing things that terrify me and having conversations with people. My main goal in life is to get a better understanding of life, and so far sharing human experiences seems to be the best way to do that.

Tell me why I'm wrong about something! I'm just a stupid 22 year old and could use some wisdom from those who've had much more enlightening experiences than I have.

HOSTING INFORMATION------
I have changed my living situation and cannot currently host anybody in my home, HOWEVER, I know some people in the area and can potentially find you somewhere you can stay. Shoot me a message and I'll see if I can help you out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see enough of this world to claim I actually lived on it, rather than on just one fleck of its dirt.

Ideally to also show people what's awesome about my town, but small-town Idaho isn't a destination for many people :P

Interests

Pretty much anything food or outdoors related you've got me! I'm in love with music and currently trying to learn some guitar, banjo, ukulele and harmonica (I'm pretty bad at all of them though!)

Take me somewhere new and we'll have a great time!

• live music
• hiking
• backpacking
• road trips
• parks
• waterfalls
• national parks
• local food
• local culture

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have literally grabbed a bull by the horns (and it was fucking terrifying)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can't say I can teach you anything, really the only thing I know for certain is how little I know. Give me 30 years and maybe I'll have something more wise to say.

What I Can Share with Hosts

More than willing to cook, clean, help out, and be (hopefully!) good company. It's your house and I'm a guest so I'll try to do whatever I can to make your life easier.
