I am a triple crown thru-hiker after completing the Appalachian Trail in 2017, Pacific Crest Trail in 2018, and Continental Divide Trail in 2019. In between the treks I've been a ski instructor in Colorado and will be returning for a couple weeks in March to teach again. During this time I hope to find some folks to crash with

I love the outdoors - backpacking, hiking, skiing, rock climbing, swimming, kayaking, cliff jumping, to name a few.

Live life to the fullest

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love meeting people when I travel and it always builds my faith in humanity. I've received so much generousity during my hikes, complete strangers giving me a ride to town from a high pass, feeding me, and even inviting me into their home for the night. I have been trying to convince my fiance that we should start hosting and pay it forward!

Intereses

I was a mechanical engineer for a decade, being a cubicle warrior, but I quit to hike across the country a couple times and become a ski instructor. Time to put happiness before paychecks! I recently moved to Austin Texas with my fiance and am exploring the town.

Música, películas y libros

Try to read two books a month, usually murder mysteries or sci-fi but sometimes pepper in some history and nonfiction to learn stuff. Music: all of it. Movies: all of em.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I've been told hiking all 7600+ miles of the Triple Crown trails is pretty amazing, but it just feels like a ton of walking.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Stories, DIY and fixing/building things, house maintenance, fun, beers. I know I don't really have a record here on couchsurfing, but I'm a great guest and would love to meet more surfers!
