About Me

I'm always up for new adventures. I love taking road trips to visit friends and family and all the hidden spots between. I don't really have a life goal or end game but I believe if I just keep doing interesting things and gaining amazing life experiences I'll live a happy and rewarding life. I care deeply about conservation and putting energy into protecting the wild things and wild places left on this earth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Getting to meet new people and have a place to stay is amazing! There's no better way to really experience a place than to stay with someone who lives there. I'm a nomad right now drifting around between temporary wildlife field jobs. I've now worked with hummingbirds in Costa Rica, California condors near Ventura CA, Caspian terns on east sand island in the Columbia river estuary, and all the forest birds on Saipan.

Interests

Birding, Biking, Hiking, Backpacking, Hotsprings, Yoga, Swimming, Rafting, Reading, Learning, Traveling Dancing . . . Pretty much anything that involves moving my body and I love adventures.
