Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I aim to challenge myself with different life experiences. Tomorrow, I hope to be proud of what I did today.
ABOUT ME
Friendly, adventurous, happy, and respectful. I love to be outside and explore the unique parts of towns and cities, as well as get to know people beyond the surface level. Currently, I spend a lot of my energy writing, reflecting, laughing, climbing, and being in solidarity with the people I care about.
PHILOSOPHY
Life is a balance of energy and acceptance. There is so much we don't know, but all of that is welcoming if we know how to create understanding within ourselves.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm completely new to this whole thing. No time like the present to get started though!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Workin' on it. First time was in Reykjavik, Iceland-- couchsurfing made the whole trip a much more fun and worthwhile experience! I would be lucky to do it again. When I have a stable home that's not a dorm room, I would be happy to host other travelers.
Interests
Hiking, running, kayaking, painting, writing, drinking coffee, and having quality conversations.
Recently found a love for anything involving gardening/weeding.

Music, Movies, and Books
Oh my. This could take a while. Ask me specifically and I'll give you my current interests.
One of the many is the Lacuna, by Barbara Kingsolver. Highly recommended.
As for movies, I love Miyazaki films and anything with especially awesome female heroes.
What music I currently have stuck in my head: Tallest Man on Earth.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
All a work in progress.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm hoping to learn whatever someone else has taken the time to study. We are all drawn to so many different interests. I want to hear the questions going through your head!
Specifically, I'm always looking to learn more about languages, art, and stories. I love hearing the stories of where people have been, or how they've come to be at a certain point in their lives. It's all a big ole' journey.
