I'm a university student studying in Berkeley, California. I grew up in a small mountain town, skiing, snowboarding, and hiking. I love the outdoors and am always willing to learn a new sport or outdoor activity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to connect with locals, explore their culture and city, and save some money while traveling. And I'm always looking for new climbing partners!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, I walked 15 miles barefoot, in the city, to raise money for shoes the homeless. I walked around glass, over gravel, through dirt, and by the end had some very bloody and swollen feet, and 280 pairs of shoes.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very much into the outdoors and nature but know next to nothing about botany. So, I would really like to remedy this situation and learn more about plants, trees in particular.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you how to climb or snowboard, and other adventurous things.
I can make fantastic sopaipilla pasadas (Chilean pancakes).
If there's a pool near by, or lake and you happen to drown I can save you, certified lifeguard.
