CURRENT MISSION

Traveling the country and studying for my real estate license in Nebraska. I'm also looking to fix my terrible response rate after leaving my profile dormant for too long.

ABOUT ME
I love running, biking and competing in races. Whenever I travel I see if there are any local events that I can compete in. I also volunteer with an organization called Root Cause to help reforest/reestablish plant life to the Haitian countryside.

PHILOSOPHY

You either get busy living or get busy dying. -Shawshank Redemption-

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love traveling the country and couchsurfing with as many interesting people as possible. I host whenever I can because I love hearing different people's stories.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurf frequently to Omaha, NE whenever I need a place to stay for the Taco Ride. I also couchsurf to visit friends in Minneapolis, Kansas City and sometimes Chicago.

Interests

Hiking, biking, cooking, broomball, road trips, hanging out and watching the Boston Red Sox.

I LOVE the Taco Rides in Council Bluffs so you can see me there every week with my vuvuzela!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Participated in Rotblatt at Carleton College! The softball game is the longest intramural sport in the US and lasts 144 innings (from 5am to 7pm or later) with a keg cup in your hand the whole time!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love people that have traveled the world. If anyone has been to Haiti, message me because I hope to travel to the Artibonite Valley in Haiti a few times a year.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a very minimalist person and won't take up a lot of space or your time. I would love to share stories from my traveling and couchsurfing experiences. Oh, and I'm a great cook, so I would love to cook some meals with you!
