I'm currently living near Lake Atitlan, Guatemala with a Mayan family for an anthropological study on migration in the area. I love to hear stories and share my own.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel I don't like to seclude myself in a hotel, but attempt to interact with the community. Hostels are a little better, but are often you just meet other travelers just looking for a party. Couchsurfing seems like the perfect option to retain the cost effectiveness of a hostel and get acquainted with a local!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Drove from Asheville NC to Boulder CO straight through in 21 hours!
Started at noon in Asheville and made it to Boulder for a late breakfast. The secret was speeding through Kansas at 2AM.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am always down to cook with someone, or if you're better than I am, I can always clean! I'm very adaptable to almost any lifestyle and do not have many needs.
