Travel has become an integral part to my life and how I experience the world. I am continuing to grow and learn through my experiences, and want to grow by meeting local people.

Please note, I have a 23 pound friendly dog as a travel partner. She is extremely friendly, good around other dogs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To better experience local culture and people. I can afford a hotel, but I want to enjoy the enrichment of better experiencing the local community.

Interests

My interests are a all meant as a means to enjoy the outdoors. Staying active and having new experiences is the focus of all that I do.

• gardening
• cycling
• hiking
• backpacking
• skiing
• snowshoeing
• wanderlust
• paddling
• dispersed camping

Music, Movies, and Books

My music likes are diverse and constantly change. I tend towards more obscure artists, though somehow I recently started to even like country.

I prefer comedy and drama movies. Black Mirror is one of my all time favorite TV shows.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just finished thru hiking the 65 mile Border Route Trail in the BWCA in 6 days. It rained for 4 days, and it was still one of my best life experiences ever!
