CURRENT MISSION

To bungy jump by the time I turn 30.

ABOUT ME

My friends would describe me as being fun loving, random, loud, absurd, and people oriented. I am always looking to meet new people to share this great experience with!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to host CS'ers if possible. Right now my schedule is all over the place, making the logistics of hosting a little challenging. I am always willing to lend a hand in educating fellow travellers about Alaska. I am usually able to make time to hang out and get into all sorts of shenanigans.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS is great because I almost always meet friendly and open people with a contagious zest for living.

Interests

Risk taking has been the major catalyst for change in my adult life. Recently, this has expressed itself through traveling. I find that when I take chances with other people, the personal reward outweighs the effort.

Currently, I am nearing completion of my Masters in Business Administration with the ultimate goal of setting myself up to travel as much as possible. I am working on my degree with the hopes of becoming involved in international finance and living overseas for a few years.

I don't identify myself by what I "do" for a living, but believe my life is measured by the relationships that I have had throughout my life. People are my passion and I am always inspired and changed by my relationships with others.

Favorite things to do: movies, concerts, music, new experiences, food, biking, learning.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Really, living in Alaska and Anchorage in particular is like living in a fantasy land. Anchorage has all of the amenities of a city but it is unique because world class hikes, skiing, and sightseeing are less than an hour away.

I also loved the natural beauty of New Zealand. Probably my favorite thing is that due to the great longitudinal span of New Zealand, you can venture from gorgeous sub-tropical beaches on the north island to winter friendly climate on the south island.

Carnival in Rio
Machu Pichu
sunsets on Easter Island
Antarctica
Teotihuacan in Mexico
Blue Lagoon in Iceland
Great Barrier Reef diving in Australia
Auschwitz in Poland
Ring of Kerry in Ireland
Skydiving in New Zealand
Getting chased in the red light district in Amsterdam by a "lady of the night ;-)"
Peruvian Amazon explorations
Salar De Uyuni (biggest salt flats in Bolivia)
Elephant Sanctuary in Thailand
Thai cooking classes in Bangkok
The Pinnacles outside of Perth
Snorkeling in Maya Bay, Ko Phi Phi Thailand

Finally, I am amazed about the amount of self-discovery that occurs every time that I travel.

And many more to come!!!!
