Hola! This summer I'm travelling aroundLatin America while my girlfriend studies in Costa Rica. I'm a recent graduate (international politics), freelance writer, mountain guide, and emergency medical worker. My mission this fall is to listen...to people, to the news, to the earth, to God, to my curiosity. I don't know what I'll encounter, but does anyone?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While I studied the world at uni, I've only ventured into it on a few occasions. It's long past time to go beyond textbooks and the internet, to meet real people. I hope that's why we're all here!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I finished an Ironman triathlon! And climbed 2 of the tallest mountains in North America

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to hike, rock climb, bike, run, and like to share knowledge about all of those!

Can also attempt to explain American politics and history, and you can teach me about the politics and history of your own country :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll always try to be respectful and amicable during my stay. Of course willing to help with house chores, cooking, cleaning, etc.

I can also offer to edit, proofread, write, and translate for a wide variety of English documents, websites, signs, and advertisements.
