Hello hello! I'm Anna, right now I'm bopping around Europe for a couple months on my way to a yoga teacher training in Spain :)

I am a river guide and primarily work during the north American summers, but work in Environmental Science. Recently I finished a masters program, maybe I'll use that degree some day.

I love to spend time with folks while traveling. My favorite part of anything is always the people I meet along the way.

I love to read and write; spending time outdoors makes me feel human. I hike, paddle white water, climb, and try to mountain bike. A low maintenance traveler.

I have a deeply held land ethic and appreciation for life and love to share in this energy with other people. When spending time with folks, I love to go for walks, share meals, hear people's stories, talk about philosophies and the experiences that make us who we are. I crave authenticity and appreciate the lessons I've learned from all the beautiful folks that have shared bits of themselves with me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I crave genuine, safe, human experiences, (always looking for climbing partners) and I love meeting new friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am a river guide, and get to paddle whitewater for work! Through this I have seen some beautiful rivers and shared some very meaningful time with folks.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn from people. I believe our lives are a series of lessons learned - that when we share our experiences and philosophies we can enliven each other.

Currently I am on a mission to learn Spanish, and would love a language practice partner!

I participate in many kinds of outdoor recreation, and am always up for an adventure, or just a walk.
