CURRENT MISSION

Spend time in the wild.

ABOUT ME

I love wildlife--sharks, snakes, bugs, and the the rest of the planet's inhabitants. I'm always up for playing boardgames or making crafts, or watching a sci-fi movie.

PHILOSOPHY

Think in larger timescales.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couchsurf a lot on road trips, and whenever I can on longer trips. I host if I'm living in one place for long enough :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm continually impressed by the amazing people I meet, and hope I'm still doing this when I'm 90.

Drove across the US with my friend in 2008, and we couchsurfed in Flagstaff, Amarillo, Memphis, Chicago, Montreal. Then in Bozeman, MT when looking at prospective grad schools. Stayed in a yurt in Mongolia with my dad. Surfed in Laramie, WY on another road trip. My husband and I surfed our way around France (Paris, Marseille, Nice and Paris again).

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I was bitten on the foot (with booties) by an eel in a Japanese cave. Hands down one the funniest and scariest moments of my life.
