I have lived a rather nomadic life so far, never staying put for more than a few years. As a result I always look forward to my next adventure but I also feel constant nostalgia for places I feel I have left behind. Simple things put a smile on my face - dogs, trees, well-crafted sentences, tailwinds on bikes rides...

I'm currently living in a tiny studio apartment and working to support my ski bum lifestyle in Big Sky, Montana.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Have surfed and hosted in the past, I went to meetups in Portland and couchsurfing was my main social circle for the year that I lived there. I haven't been active in a while due to a change in lifestyle (becoming more "settled") but would still welcome the opportunity to meet up and help out a traveler passing through.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite books are ones I have bought on a whim second hand and they end up being spectacular. The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera is one of the greatest novels of all time.

Music depends on the circumstances. But some of my favourites include Bjork, Fever Ray, Grimes, Kingdom, Groove Armada, Massive Attack... also really into Rihanna and Nicki Minaj - not ashamed.
