ABOUT ME

;;;
i am taking my minnesota nice worldwide. i like weird films & good music & binge eating (gluten free) & giggling until i fall on the floor.

i love my nomadic lifestyle, but i really crave the day i sit still long enough to get a cat, fill my walls with art & host surfers.

for now, i continue to roam:: i've just returned from iceland / uk / croatia followed by a long overdue west coast roadtrip with my british friend. i am living in minneapolis working with habitat for humanity. i drive a bright yellow pick up truck and build houses and work with wonderful volunteers and future homeowners everyday. it is the greatest. i have had such wonderful experiences with couch surfing and am eager to continue meeting new friends. you all are interesting. the world is pretty cool.

PHILOSOPHY

go be young.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

skinny dipping in a hot spring in middle-of-nowhere, iceland.
the redwood forest.
sprinting from chasing cows in middle-of-nowhere, wales.
instant connections with strangers.

every time i return to minneapolis i have overwhelmingly potent moments of appreciation for this incredible city and state. living in this city is amazing.
