I am a paleontologist (someone who digs up dinosaurs for those who don't know) and I am double majoring in math and physics in college. I've tracked coyotes, bears and falcons as part of conservation research
I've been to Rome, Egypt and Thailand as well as all over America. I started working on a farm when I was 6 years old and now I work at a shopping center in sisters. I like to play football, basketball, tennis, table tennis, and swim.
My older brother is about 21 and I will be 20 next week. Our little sister is 15.
We live up in the high desert mountains in Oregon where there are about 2000 people in the town bit you only see maybe 100 of them cuz the forest that separates us is so vast. Unfortunately, much of the town is evacuated due to some huge fires. But in central Oregon it isn't summer unless there's fire right outside the door.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I lost my debit card in Thailand and have no money at all. My brother and I can't get home until the 29th and need a place to stay once we leave Thailand on the 22nd. We are basically going to be surviving off of his money (about 100 USD) for the next 2 weeks. If anyone can help us out that'd be awesome. We don't smoke but can tolerate those who do. We are more than willing to help work for our stay; both of us are used to working hard. We don't speak any Japanese but we are more than willing to give it a try. We will be more than greatful to anyone who let's us into their home.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived getting run over by an ATV that was going 40mph when I was 10. The doctor said I almost went into a comma but I came out unscathed.

Teach, Learn, Share

We can teach our hosts all about america, we want to learn about a new culture and maybe developed new skills

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am very open to try anything new. My brother and I will respect the rules of the house and want to have a genuine friendship with the hosts. We will share with them anything they want to know about america and if they plan to travel to america in the future we will help them set that up. Also, if they want any chores done we will do them.
