I love visiting new places and hiking. I also love learning everything I can about biology. I'd say I'm laid back, silly, and a good listener.
I just completed my second term as an SCA Americorps member, which is a bit like a domestic version of the Peacecorps which focuses on environmental conservation. SCA = student conservation association.
I have two cats that I adore and I am a vegetarian

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
