CURRENT MISSION

Going where the winds don't blow so strange

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Minneapolis, and I enjoy living in the city. I graduated from the University of in Biology.

I am an open minded person and find it easy to get along with other people. I will try most anything once. My friends would say I'm sponataneous and don't take things very serious.

I like to travel slow taking my time in each place, and really get to know the areas cultural wonders. I don't enjoy big tourist sites very much. Visiting the Statue of Liberty was painfully boring. Hiking through a forest with a friend, or riding the subway around a metropolis is much more enjoyable.

PHILOSOPHY

Meeting new friends will make the world a smaller place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted people at my home in Minneapolis. While staying in Rio de Janeiro I attended many gatherings meeting some great people and discovering amazing things about the city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met some really nice people and learned many things in the short time I've been involved.

Interests

My friends are really important to me. I Enjoy going to see live music. Camping, biking, treking and other outdoor activities have always been present in my life. I also like to cook. Good Beer is one of my favorite things.

I have been studying Portuguese, visited Brazil twice now, would love to live there for a bit. I would really like travel around Portugal, also thinking of visiting a friend in Peru.
