I'm from a small Midwestern town in Wisconsin. I love trying all kinds of different food, I'm a travel nut and a map lover. I just moved to Boston to get my PhD in Geography so we'll see how that goes. Exercising and being fit whether it be running or climbing is also one of my favorite things to do, especially since I feel like I can eat more afterwards.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just moved to Boston so I'm looking to meet some fun new people. Meeting new people and visiting new places is also big on my to do list so this site seems perfect for me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got to spend a summer on the Galapagos Islands through an internship there. It was such a cool, unique experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to barely play the mandolin. I can cook a tiny bit. If you want to pick out a good beer I can help you make a decision for the most part. I know how to backcountry camp without dying. Also, I have a completely unnecessary wealth of knowledge regarding Game of Thrones and the book series it's based on.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, I enjoy telling stories, especially when I have a beer in me (literally one, I'm a lightweight). Also I grew up in the Midwest so I'm awkwardly polite in most situations.
