I grew up in St. Louis, Missouri but have spent most of the past nine years living in California. I've been lucky enough to travel all over the world and meet great people. Now I'm settled in SF while I finish up law school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I'm traveling, I love to see places from the locals' perspective. Couchsurfing is always a great way to discover the best parts of new cities and meet great people at the same time.

Interests

I've trekked and backpacked all over the US, especially in California. I would love to explore more trails around the world!

Music, Movies, and Books

Not picky on the music front - love folk and bluegrass, hip hop, pop.

Too many favorite books and movies to list, I don't know where to start!
Good books are my constant travel companions and I'm always reading something new. Ask me about it, and I'm sure I'll talk your ear off.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a month living on Koh Rong, an awesome little island in Cambodia with no roads, no cars, and lots and lots of beautiful beaches.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you like to cook, I can teach you my favorite recipes and learn some of yours!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company and good conversation.
I love to cook and do the dishes too :)
