A nature and science enthusiast who is currently deployed to McMurdo Station, Antarctica as part of the Antarctic Support Contract. Before coming to the bottom of the world, I was at the top of it - in Anchorage, Alaska.

When I'm not bouncing between places to call home, I'm writing, taking photographs, hiking, camping, and generally loving life.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

My good friend has been a couchsurfing host for a while and when we lived together, I loved meeting all the travelers! I'm excited to be a part of the community and explore the world as a surfer before settling down as a host.

Music: Love it all but I'm a sucker for bluegrass, folk, and the blues.

Movies: It's been a while since I watched movies- but I tend to love a good foreign or indie film.

Books: House of Leaves, Unbearable Lightness of Being, The Red Book, among others.
