I'm always seeking new experiences and wonderful people to share them with! I split my year between working as a PADI scuba diving instructor in warm tropical locations and as a marine biologist for the national marine fisheries service on fishing boats in Alaska. I have many passions that I love to share with the people I meet, especially food! I'm an open-minded, outgoing, laid back adventurer who's never in one place for long and am quick to laugh and bond with new friends. When I'm not traveling I can usually be found somewhere on the west coast of the US (California, Washington, or Alaska) hiking, diving, mushroom hunting, and wandering around the beaches and forests doing various shenanigans.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

to connect with locals while traveling to share stories, adventures, food, and good company. It is the best way to get to know a locale and show others why you love your home.
