I currently live in Salt Lake City, Utah and work for a medical tech company as a Supply Chain Manager. I enjoy outdoors activities, hiking and nature. I like reading about science especially astronomy, biology and history. Architecture and home renovations are my other passions, you can often find me working on some house projects while listening to a good audiobook after work. When I go somewhere, I make sure I bring a new mineral or rock to add to my rock collection. I like to experience local cuisine and learn about people's cultures and lives. I believe that every person is unique and beautiful in its own way so I enjoy getting to know people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I absolutely love traveling and unfortunately I don't do it often. When I travel I spend a lot of time meeting and talking to new people. Couchsurfing provides a great opportunity to meet amazing people around the world who help each other experience this world in the affordable way. I used couchsurfing only a few times in NYC and San-Francisco.
