I'm a new high school teacher on my first summer vacation! Wooo! I have traveled a lot internationally, but never been around the US much, so I want to change that.

I feel like I am filling out a dating profile. I like uhh, animals, and playing sports like basketball and tennis. I plan to hike and backpack a bit this summer, so if I can stay on your couch then you should come camp with me too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As previously mentioned, summer vacation, wooo! I am on a motorcycle trip and need some places to crash and shower every once in a while.
