COVID Update: Hosting travelers who are both vaccinated and boosted 😊 Hello! I have been a Couchsurfer since April 2017 and an active part of the Denver Couchsurfing Community since November 2017! Currently I am the organizer for the Weekly Denver Couchsurfing Meetups. If you are looking to meet some great people in the Denver area I recommend you come join us! It has been a great experience for me to organize a meetup, and I'm always open to new ideas of ways to change things up or make the meetups more inclusive. I live in the beautiful Cap Hill neighborhood, close to a lot of great places like City O' City, the Capitol Building, City Park, Pablo's Coffee, Cheesman Park and many great museums. I like to make sure that surfers are reading my profile, so please let me know where your favorite place in the world is when you are sending me a request. Mine is Great Sand Dunes National Park! My home is a safe and welcoming space for LGBTIQA+ individuals! I use him/him/his pronouns

Por que estou no Couchsurfing
I want to meet new people, learn about other cultures and explore new places. I think that it's important to connect with locals when traveling, it's something I always make sure to try and do. I love being able to travel the world and still feel like I am a part of the warm and welcoming community that is Couchsurfing.

Uma Coisa Incrível Que Já Fiz
I traveled Southeast Asia by myself for five months. Ended up in some funny scenarios.... Like living in the back of a kindergarden classroom for a few weeks or vomitting out of the window of a 14 hour local bus in Laos. I've also done a lot of trail work so I've spent months at a time living in the woods in Colorado.

I love volunteering! Spent a year doing AmeriCorps NCCC where I was constantly involved with volunteer and service projects. Hiking, camping, travel blogging and eating new foods are also big passions of mine!
