When I was little I thought I'd be chasing whales but now I study invertebrates (which has proven to be equally rewarding). Done some travelling but not enough. Would far rather rough it and make new friends while travelling because that's a more genuine experience.

Love outdoor sports, the ocean, wildlife, and connecting with other humans. Decent conversation guaranteed, excellent conversation on a good day.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Travelling in a new place where the language and customs are unfamiliar can be a vulnerable experience; I think opening yourself up to a stranger from elsewhere whether it be welcoming them into your home or just having a friendly conversation is the most generous and rewarding thing one can do.
