Bubbly Californian who is happiest outdoors. Quit my job at the the end of 2020 to travel (well, actually I tried to quit at the end of 2019, made it three countries, and then had to turn right back around). Have been spending most of my time hiking and camping in the US, but hoping to go international once again. Always looking for new experiences, meaningful connections, and the simple pleasures in life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to Couchsurf many moons ago and it was some of my favorite experiences. In the years since, I found myself staying at hostels or Airbnbs with friends since it was easier, but when I travel solo I find that I get more authentic experiences via Couchsurfing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I come from an environmental science background and have been working in tech the last 7 years, so happy to talk about any of that! But more excited to learn from others.
