CURRENT MISSION

To meander through life, meet intriguing people, and embark on challenging adventures.

ABOUT ME

Greetings! Hmmm what to type ... I am easy-going and tend to be quite cheerful and spontaneous. I have an adventurous personality, and I am always up to exploring new places and meeting new challenges. I just recently finished school and now work at a seismic instrumentation center and support scientists in the Arctic and Antarctic. I am super excited to go to Greenland in August and Antarctica next fall.

Looking forward to meeting you!

PHILOSOPHY

Like Thoreau said so well "Be true to your work, your word, and your friend."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I finally have my own little house place, and I would love to host people. I also know lots of cool hikes around Socorro.

I surfed in my travels to Ecuador, in Berlin, and on my hitch hiking adventure to Istanbul.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with some people in Quito, and it was great.

Who knew that there were so many awesome strangers!!!

Interests

I am somewhat of an outdoors freak, and I like hiking backpacking, mountain biking, rock climbing, snow-shoeing, and the list goes on.

I am also fascinated by history, both local and world, and love opportunities to discuss it. We can also talk about developments in remote sensing and its application in advancing the science of remote geophysics haha.

Languages are cool, and I am trying to learn Nepali from my best friend.
