Hi!
I am a professional cyclist and I love it! I have always been active and in sports and I am so excited to be living my dream as a professional cyclist and am working towards competing in the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. My husband and I try to travel together as much as we can, and as cheaply as we can and to the deep wild places in this world. The best part about exploring this world is meeting new people to teach us something. Everyone has a story.
My husband is a farmer, videographer, photographer and mtn biker. Every winter we travel North American and live in our travel mobile, last year my husband built us a home in a van!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have heard a lot of good things from friends who have used couchsurfing and thought we had better try it! We first used it to escape a lot of rain on the west coast - which makes it hard to tent and ride bikes and stay healthy - but we found a great host and a great escape! I've done a few meetups when I lived in Italy by myself which was nice to meet people.
