Hey y'all I'm Jesse, grad student by night, avid cyclist and mountain climber by day.

I am enthusiastic and prone to eccentricities, the motliest of the motley crew, always looking for an adventure.

I'm always up for a good conversation and I love to laugh.

I like to learn new stuff, do hard things and make the most of every day with the people around me

My travel philosophy--the best part of travel is the friends you make and the stories you write.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I always need travel buddies & I love talking to other open-minded people! When I cant get out myself and explore the world because of grad school I can just live through others with hosting, and I really value connecting with locals when traveling. Even if I can't host, I'd love to meet up !

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: My music choice is rather eclectic, I listen to a bit of everything from classic rock & roll to indie folk to electronic & hip hop

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've free soloed the Yosemite Triple Crown which was pretty cool.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a graduate student so I am always happy to talk about my research.
But thats boring and not an actual skill that would matter if I taught it to you
I can teach you how to climb & share with you stories of adventures Ive had
