I'm a college student interested in learning, exploring and new challenges. I spend my energy cycling, backpacking, climbing, practicing photography, dancing, playing and listening to music, flow arts like juggling, and cooking to name just a few activities.

I'm very respectful and accepting of others. I don't smoke and I'm 420-friendly. I love being outdoors and active as much as possible, and getting my sleep.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

For a change of pace, for more variety.

Interessen

Meeting new people, absolute number one. Something about it fascinates me.

Hobbies that challenge my dexterity, coordination, and balance. Creative expression. Reading, philosophy, math and rocket science. Making up for a childhood of picky eating by trying as many new foods as possible.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I've spent the night on the sand of the Negev desert, waking up at 4 in the morning, and hiking into the midday heat to rock scramble my way to one of the most beautiful summits.

I built a marimba out of 2-by-4s and PVC pipe, then learned a medley of one hit wonders on it.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I know a lot about things relating to words like: biochemistry, plant physiology, anatomy, ecology, evolution, genetics, etc.

I can teach the basics of playing brass instruments, or drums. I love sharing my passion for photography, and most of all I am extremely well versed in teaching people how to juggle.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can entertain, I can bring levity and amusement, I enjoy lending a hand and doing my part. I can share as much helpfulness and energy is needed.
