Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would much rather experience a place I go in the most respectful and insightful way I could think to do it: with local people and culture in mind.

Music, Movies, and Books

Any music, live concerts are the best though. More of a book person, I love anything written over 100 years ago and Aldo Leopold's "A Sand County Almanac" (and essays from Round River of course)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent three months in backcountry Alaska hiking, pack rafting, and working for USFWS in the Brooke's Range.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to exchange ideas and stories to expand my knowledge of the world. I am also very helpful and don't mind helping out if you need a project done!

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Costa Rica
