ABOUT ME
I love surfing (although its been awhile), my family and friends, snowboarding, reading, travelling, hiking, etc etc, I like to create, I love meeting new people, talking, and hanging out.

I'm respectful of all cultures and background and open minded. I value other peoples opinions and experiences and skills. I'm passionate about social justice work and fighting human trafficking, and want to use business to do this.

PHILOSOPHY
To love and be loved. To create relationships and community. All creation shouts his praise.
Joy is the result of thankfulness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Couchsurfing has only worked out once for me but it was an awesome experience, with a dance party and all.

Haven't hosted much because I live in a small town where not a lot of people come through although it is quite beautiful

Too many:
Swam with dolphins in Hawaii. Been a dream of mine since I was 8yrs old

Took my dad to Peru for his birthday and hiked up machu picchu which was incredible.

Lived in a slum for a year working with homeless and working in a safehouse

Working with kids with autism in New Zealand

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to learn to surf better, and scuba dive and speak Spanish fluently.
