I really enjoy meeting new people and learning about other cultures and viewpoints which differ from my own. I grew up in the middle of nowhere and now that I have the opportunity to travel abroad I want to make the best of it!

Right now I'm working on an MBA with a focus on economics and consulting. My latest career aspiration is to be a development economist, but I really just want to do something that allows me to live overseas and make a positive impact. I also want to live on a sailboat.

I've lived several places in the US, as well as Singapore.

I'm all about life and the living, and similarly-minded people.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love traveling to new cultures and truly immersing myself, making new friends, and getting off of the beaten path. I like the exchange of life experiences in an open-minded environment.

The free part is great too.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Dogsledding at night in -40 degrees Fahrenheit with the northern lights dancing in front and the stars glittering behind me.

教，学，和分享

I really enjoy photography, music (I love jamming on my harmonicas), staying in shape, sailing, learning how to work on cars and BMWs in particular, building things like my own dining table from a tree, and adventures in the outdoors, and could probably teach a thing or two.

My interests are quite varied, and I like working on my Spanish whenever the opportunity arises!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

A thriving interest in just about everything, especially in the struggles and conquests in everyday life both individual and societal. I'm always down for new experiences and intelligent, reasoned discussion, especially with my own experiences and those of others.
