CURRENT MISSION

My goal is to explore and photograph the world, and maybe meet some people along the way.

ABOUT ME

Biology faculty at Williston State College. I inspire curious minds to learn about the wonders of life and the natural world.

In my off time, I love to hike in the mountains and explore the wilderness, always with my camera in tow.

PHILOSOPHY

I work to live, rather than live to work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why are any of us on Couchsurfing? I mean, let's be honest. Most of us are here because we love to travel, but want or need to do so on a budget. Hotels are expensive. They're also impersonal. Hostels are cheaper, but you take a gamble on safety and quality.

We're also on Couchsurfing because we're inherently social creatures. I'm here because I want to meet locals, whether I'm just passing through or staying as my destination. There's no better way to get to know a place than to hang out with someone who lives there.

I'm also here to return that favor. I want to offer you a place to stay as well as someone to hang out with as an alternative to staying in one of the many generic hotels in town.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my culinary skills. While I'm no expert chef, I do know my way around a kitchen.
I can also share my sense of adventure. Chances are that I'm visiting your area to go hiking and exploring. I'd enjoy the company if you wish to join me.
