Hello! I am an introvert who is fueled by nature. I love groups where I can share and listen but not carry the conversation ;)

I love to travel to see the natural wonders of the world. Sometimes I just need silence and nature - other times I enjoy deep, philosophical conversations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Awesome friends who have used this service have great things to say about their experiences.

I've surfed briefly and hung out with people who are surfing in Telluride.

The time this service really pulled through for me was when I was in NYC for Occupy Wall Street. I ended up not need a couch bc I didn't want to leave the occupation but planning my trip there, it was nice to know so many people would be supportive.

I am usually camping but in the winter months - it's awesome to save money, stay somewhere warm and connect with people who really know the area.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting in Arches National Park - Moab, Utah - as the sun sets after a storm in total silence with my two friends, knowing we could not possible relate what we were experiencing to anyone not there with us.
