CURRENT MISSION

Bike everything possible

ABOUT ME

I'm a busy girl who likes it that way. I like to read, bike, snowboard, hike, cook, garden, and TRAVEL. I'm 27 and full of contradictions. I like to have intelligent conversations with people, but can easily revert back to gross-out competitions. I like to drink, but prefer fun that's not alcohol induced. I'm trying to find a balance between responsibility and living life to the fullest (if there is such a thing).

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that challenges make a person stronger, that knowledge humbles, and that nobody knows everything so there is no point in acting like it.

Got a couch

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've always slept on friends' couches and vice versa growing up- I just never knew there was a web site for it! Now that I do know, I will be using it this summer!

Interests

Anything outdoors! If circumstances allow ( and I have free time) I would be camping, mountain biking, river rafting, swimming, hiking, snowshoeing, snowboarding, and climbing. I would pretty much try any new sport if someone would show me how.
Since I am in the city though, I like walking or biking through it, playing pinball, going to rock n roll shows, and having bbqs
