Hello. I am a respectful and open-hearted & open-minded traveler who prefers local cultural experiences to alcohol heavy party environments. I grew up in different parts of the US and spend 3-6 months every year traveling somewhere new. I teach rock climbing to small children while I am home (San Francsico Bay Area) and sell organic vegetables at the local market too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I travel so frequently I have realized that no matter where I go, I cannot escape the fact that I am always exactly who I am. I don't want to party and disappear into a vacation- I want to make friendships with like-minded people who live in other places because human connection is vital and intriguing.

Interests

Rock climbing and all outdoor sports.
Hanging out with children in nature.
Reading about the Universe.
Meditation and other dharmic practices.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of many- concocted a dream, made a plan, saved some money, bought a truck, moved into the back of it full time, drove around the country rock climbing, decided to buy a ticket to Laos with a new friend....

Which is my life at this current moment. I'm doing the most amazing thing I could have imagined.

Teach, Learn, Share

Rock climbing is something I teach currently.
I would love to learn more languages. At least the basics in all the countries I travel to.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Meals and stories. Community.
