CURRENT MISSION

Find a job in the mountains, hike around up there for the next 30 years or so.

ABOUT ME

I was raised by two college professors, so I'm a somewhat eclectic person. I work with computers, but outside of work, I'm a pretty serious Luddite. I love to hike, camp, fish, read, basically anything outdoors.

People say I'm quiet and reserved, and I guess I am to an extent. I tend to have a pretty dry sense of humor, but I do have a weakness for puns and bathroom humor (all in good taste, of course).

PHILOSOPHY

Never deny who you are. You were created the way you were for a purpose, flaws and all.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've mainly hosted people, but stayed with a couple of cool people while traveling through Alaska a few years ago as well. My husband and I are always up for meeting new folks from different parts of the world!

兴趣

Reading, camping, hiking, poetry, music; pretty much anything that gets me outdoors and away from technology.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I've been to Iceland twice. The first time, I played it safe and stayed in a hotel in Reykjavik the whole trip (although I drove around and explored plenty!). The next year, I showed up with practically no plan and drove all the way around the island, just stopping and camping or finding a hotel whenever I got tired each day.
