My dream is to sell my house in the city, build a small house in the mountains and travel until my legs fall off. In leiu of travel I hope to meet some great people by hosting. I'm a student who loves to be outdoors... camping, hiking, skiing etc. I have a 9yo boy who lives with me part-time and 2 large cats full-time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't get to do much traveling these days so I do it vicariously through my guests. It's a great way to meet new people and I hope to accumulate a large network of friends so I have people to visit when I'm finally able to do some traveling of my own.
