Originally from San Diego, California and been traveling full-time for 4 years now. Love dogs, climbing, reading, cooking, and making color-coded spreadsheets. Love meeting travel buddies who want to go on trips together or just grab food at a street market.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I haven't traveled much but have decided it's time to start seeing the world! Googling around to figure out what I'd like to see has made me realize that I don't really care about the destination so much as the experience; more exploring and discovering rather than sight-seeing. I'd like to find a quiet crash pad with nice people who would ideally like to chat over meals or hang out (hike, climb, explore the town, drive around backroads, etc).

Intereses

Love to climb, backpack, read, and poke interesting looking things with sticks.

I'm a total foodie, would be thrilled to help out in the kitchen and learn a new dish! (Also of course happy to pitch in for groceries.)

Like to grow things, as much as one can on a patio, but I'm not very good at it. I even kill basil. BASIL.

Absolutely love dogs so if you have a furry friend I'll be thrilled. I can help with basic training dogs (avid rescue volunteer!) and horses.

Música, películas y libros

My favorite is The Sea Wolf by Jack London but I'm currently on a Stephen King binge---which brings me to movies because I'm a big fan of horror movies, not sure why...they're like cognitive roller coasters I guess. :)

Algo increíble que he hecho

intense backpacking trip crossing a gnarly creek over a waterfall and traversing some high snow on a ledge *gulps fondly*

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I'm down to help out if I can! And if you have dogs I will absolutely gush over them and can help with walks if desired (shelter volunteer!)
