CURRENT MISSION

Survive the Pandemic and meet new people when safe to do so.

PHILOSOPHY

I feel everything we do to the world around us and ourselves shapes who we are. I believe in protecting our environment in anyway we possibly can for future and current generations to enjoy and prosper from.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people in new places. I'm learning Spanish at the moment and if there's any Spanish speakers willing to help me practice, I'm all ears.

Interests

I'm an avid outdoors person. I love running half marathons and rock climbing. I'm continuing to learn how to ski and love traveling any chance I can.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn anything and everything about new cultures and the environment.
