I lived in Denver, Colorado for the past 7 years, but grew up in St. Louis, Missouri. One year ago my husband and I moved out to travel for an indefinite period of time. We spent 6 months road tripping through the Western United States and Canada. We then spent 5 months traveling through SE Asia. Most recently we are traveling through Europe via tandem bicycle.

I am an avid outdoor enthusiast! I love hiking, road biking, mountain biking, snowboarding, camping, and travel in general.

I am always excited to visit a new place, learn about the culture, meet the people, and try the food!

Favorite Travel Quote:
"“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” - Mark Twain

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I believe it’s a great way to meet like-minded travelers and gain the inside scoop on an area. It is also a great way to be involved in the travel community.

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

I love all kinds of music from back in the day, especially Janis Joplin, Bob Marley, Otis Redding, the Beatles, the Doors, Cat Stevens, Simon and Garfunkel, and the list goes on! Recently, I have been into Florence and the Machine, Vampire Weekend, Local Natives, and many more. I am open to most any music.

I am always looking for a good book to read. I love historical fiction, novels, and biographies. While traveling I will miss my book club group, but plan to stay in loop :)

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Summited 11 mountains over 14,000 feet.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

I can cook a great meal - dinner or breakfast. I also love talking about travel, outdoor adventures, and any other fun activities over a beer or glass of wine.
