CURRENT MISSION

Discovering my travel style

ABOUT ME

I am a young professional who loves the outdoors and new experiences. I'll try anything once.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that people are inherently good, that everyone has valuable stories and life experiences to share, and that the world is an unbelievably interesting place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I did a lot of surfing when I was in Brazil. I have a couch now! I'd also be happy to meet up with people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am forever grateful to all of the owners of couches that I have surfed on. Some have been last minute, and all have been accommodating and wonderful.

Interests

Hiking, kayaking, beach days, snorkeling, snow-shoeing, just about anything outdoors. I also love cozy tea shops and listening to live music. I'm interested in history, biology, the news, birds, sushi, yoga, ultimate frisbee, and other people's lives.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Summer of 2012 I went on a week-long rafting trip on the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. I went hiking from camp one night, and saw four bighorn sheep, two ewes and two lambs, watching everyone else in camp. Lesson learned. You never know what's watching you, or what you're missing by only looking in one direction.
