COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have spent years crashing on couches of friends and friends of friends, but new to this site. Excited for the opportunities available.

兴趣

I love being outdoors, and am quite active. Hiking, skiing, climbing, cycling. I love trying new food, even if I don't like it all that much. I always try and learn as much about the history of where I travel before I go, and I love chatting with locals about the current state of wherever. Give me your honest opinion please!

音乐、电影和书籍

I love to read. Tend to bounce all over the place, but lately have been reading a lot about mountaineering stories, food essays, books on the current state of the world and how we got there, and classic American literature, always.

I have always loved music. Started out listening to punk and hardcore in elementary school, and while I still listen to that, have branched out considerably. Love Americana music, indie rock, electronic dance....I can usually find at least one artist in any genre of music that I like and appreciate. Always looking for new, inspiring art.

The written word is my favorite form of art, whether that is literature, prose, song lyrics or just intelligent conversation.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

5 years ago I had one of the most amazing back to back experiences of my life. Within a span of 4 months, I cycled across one continent and then climbed to the top of another.

I rode my bike across the USA with a group called Bike and Build. As we rode, we stopped along the way and built houses for families in need with Habitat for Humanity. 6 weeks after the trip ended, I moved to Tanzania to work in an orphanage. When there, I climbed Kilimanjaro in 2.5 days. It was incredibly challenging, with not much sleep (3-4 hours a night) but absolutely amazing.
