CURRENT MISSION

To make an impact on the world, no matter how small

ABOUT ME

I am a full time student interested in infectious disease and veterinary medicine. When not studying, I travel as often as possible. I always try to incorporate my love for camping, hiking, and exploring wherever I go.

I'm passionate about animals, the environment, and outdoor activities.

I love classic literature, photography and good conversation. Don't trust my taste in music, though! I listen to Jimmy Buffet. Most people tell me thats pretty embarrassing.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest now, because you never know what will happen tomorrow.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm easy going and down to earth. I love meeting new people and having adventures-big or small. I absolutely hate being an inconvenience and I'll do everything possible to make sure that I'm not in your way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't had much experience with couch surfing. That probably has a lot to do with the fact that my town has over 250 other people offering their couches and very little reason for people to need a place to stay.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just having the opportunity to travel as much as I have is pretty amazing to me.

But I suppose if I have to list something strange:

during my travels I have ridden a Giraffe, Ostrich, Tapir, and even a Giant Tortoise. I've also wrangled a crocodile. Cool right?
