About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hostel hopping, pub crawling, and adventuring my way around this big beautiful world, hoping to make as many friends and memories as possible along the way.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Germany and grew up in the beautiful state of Montana. After graduating college I spent two years in Seattle. In August 2014 I left my job in advertising to begin traveling and have had the most incredible adventure so far.

PHILOSOPHY

There will always be somewhere else to go, something to learn, and more people to meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movie is Into the Wild. The two most recent books I've read are Wild and Beautiful Ruins, loved both of them. For music, I can get along with almost anything, but particularly love Ray LaMontange, Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews, John Mayer, Jason Mraz.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn: everything!
Teach + Share: (almost) everything. I love, love, love to cook and am more than happy to offer up a meal or help around the house. I've also tutored English in the past and have volunteered on organic farms.
