Overview
About Me
I am a geology student, and love to learn and travel. The more I learn, the more I see in the world around me. From geology to biology, astronomy to philosophy, I see more in the universe every day. I love the outdoors and spend as much time as I can camping, hiking, rock climbing, foraging, etc. My current obsession is languages!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing I've done is taught someone. It could be anything. Maybe about meditation or philosophy maybe about geology, or bugs or hiking.... but the greatest thing I've done is to share knowledge, while gaining knowledge is the second greatest thing.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: can teach how to play digeridoo, the basics of sport climbing, wushu, some stuff about rocks (geology), some stuff about plants and animals and such (biology), some stuff about sour dough, some stuff about soap.
Learn: Want to learn different cooking methods (spices, dishes, etc.) from different cultures. I’m always intrigued by traditional and alternative medical practices from around the world, especially in combination with modern western medicine. I love learning about the natural sciences. Lastly, I love exploring diverse philosophical perspectives. My life is a walk through the universe and I’m trying my best to map it.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer smiles, stories and would love to share a meal and cook up some food. Homemade soap that you can use while you are here, and I bake sourdough all the time so there will definitely be bread if I am the host. I can also belay anyone who climbs and I am always interested in an outdoor adventure.
