Overview
About Me
I'm currently in the process of looking for a career that will keep me outdoors, but that will also keep me fed. I was born and raised on Florida's "Nature Coast," and I still find this land of crystal clear springs and dark oak hammocks to be the most magical place on earth. That said, I'm a sucker for variety, and I often find myself longing for the mountains (and even the snow). In order to have it both ways, I'm looking for a scenario where I can work seasonally as a wilderness guide -summers in the north and winters in Florida- with plans to eventually start my own backcountry tour business.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on couchsurfing specifically to help facilitate my upcoming trip to Duluth, MN, where I'll be applying for summer jobs with local outfitters and tour companies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The day after climbing NY's Mt Marcy, I completed a full Presidential Traverse in New Hampshire's White Mountains. Due to a combination of poor planning and good luck, about half of my hike was at night, under a full moon.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm always willing to show off my skills in the kitchen, and if you're thinking of visiting the real Florida, I can put together an itinerary for you that will knock you off your feet. Few people are as intimately acquainted with Florida's beautiful, unknown nooks and crannies as I am, and nothing is more satisfying to me than showing them off.
