Been living out of a suitcase as a solo traveler for the past few months - Japan, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia and Greece. Looking to meet new people and share stories. I currently live in San Francisco, California but have lived all across the U.S. including Chicago, Vermont, Colorado and now California. I love outdoor activities and being surrounded by nature. Camping, mountain biking, skiing, SCUBA, surf to name a few.

I worked as a chef for a long time and think that nothing introduces someone to culture better than good food, an afternoon coffee or evening glass of wine.

I currently work in environmental consulting and am able to work while I travel, I am so lucky to have this opportunity and am looking to give back and share with the world. I am passionate about conservation and climate issues and have spent a lot of time volunteering on political campaigns.

Currently reading Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harare; and Homer's The Odyssey.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling alone has been one of the best experiences of my life. Everywhere I go I meet amazing and interesting people, and I think couch surfer is a great idea! I'm new to this, but would happily share travel stories, help with english or just talk about philosophy, art, literature, music, environmnet, politics :)
