Hello! If you're reading this you're probably either considering hosting or looking to crash on my couch.

A little about me, I'm from Washington DC but grew up about half my life in Asia and Latin America. In between working for international development organizations and political campaigns I enjoy long hitchhiking trips and mountain biking.

I'm easy going, friendly, respectful, and hope to meet you soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to meet interesting people while traveling the world and paying it back to other travelers.

Interests

On a typical day I'm comfortable going out to restaurants/bars or just staying in with good company and a movie. If I'm in a part of the world with mountains you'll find me spending my days on a mountain bike or on a snowboard. If I'm near the sea I'll be 100ft under exploring shipwrecks and reef systems.

I can be very political, but I am respectful of different points of views and eager to expand my horizons.
