I am a veterinarian. I have a background in biology and researching stress in reptiles--catching lizards in the desert all summer is the best way to spend your summer vacation!! So consequently I have a soft spot for nerdy conversations :) I absolutely love outdoor sports--climbing, hiking, backpacking, snowboarding, snowshoeing, etc...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm an introvert but every time I get out of my comfort zone and meet someone new, it is always the highlight of my trip! Travelers always have the best adventure stories! You never really get the same experience if you don't have some locals to show you around, anyway :)

Interests

Everything!! Everything is interesting! But I do have some weird hobbies like Irish Dance, and sometimes I'll crack out various musical instruments if I happen to have a spare second.
