CURRENT MISSION

being in the right place at the right time

ABOUT ME

I'm a senior at the University of Portland, planning to be teaching english in Nepal a year from now. Very into photography and have had a lot of fun working at the college newspaper these past 2 years. I play guitar a lot and bring it with me when I travel, I'd be happy to sing you a song :)I feel that when you stop being curious you don't learn as much. I snowboard, golf, ride my bike, fire dance and make art.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no wealth but life - John Ruskin

I beleive that there are many paths to success and ultimately, happiness for all is ultimate

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live with a girl who couchsurfed through northern Europe with me and 2 guys who have traveled to South America and Asia. We have semi hectic schedules but love meeting new people and not unused to opening our couches to visitors.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfer through Stockholm, Oslo, Helsinki and Amsterdam with 2 friends at the end of our year studying abroad in Salzburg Austria. The people we met on our trip is what made our experience so amazing. The profesional viking jugglers that hosted us in Oslo are unforgetable.

I had a profile on here a couple of years ago with a bunch of good references but I can't find it anymore :(
