Currently in the process of moving so can't accept guests for a bit!

I live in Duluth, with my partner Brandon. We both love rock climbing and being outside whenever we can. I love learning new things from passionate people and enjoy sharing meals and stories with others. If you ever want to hear someone talk about trees, travel, or climbing (and other topics I promise!), you're looking at the right person.

I'm always down to go hiking/exploring as well as just hanging out and drinking tea. I've met some great people through couchsurfing and I hope to continue to do so.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because the majority of couchsurfers I've met are people who also hold value in connecting with others/locals as they travel. Being a part of said community is something I hold dear and will gladly continue to participate in.

Interests

I want to avoid becoming stagnant -- both mentally and physically, by striving to learn new things, meeting new people, getting outside, and challenging my beliefs and ideas.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a volunteer intern at Patagonia National Park at the reproductive center for Darwin's Rheas the summer of 2017. I lived off grid in the mountains and with no internet/contact with the outside world & with 4 of the most incredible humans I've ever met.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach how to make bread in a wood-fired oven, would like to learn how to do a headstand, and can share stories and laughter.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am open minded and accommodating. I can work well with others and enjoy meeting new people. I am somewhat soft spoken, but I enjoy conversing with others and experiencing new things.
