I am from Salt Lake City, Utah. I have lived here most of my life. I lived in South America for two years (2011-2013) where I lived in Uruguay and learned spanish. I am a very easy-going type of person. I enjoy the opportunity to connect with others on a deep level, especially those that have an amazing story about their journeys around the world. Love to be outdoors, always. Utah has some amazing skiing in the winter as well as great hikes in the summer which is one of the main reasons I love living here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I heard about Couchsurfing a little while back and set up an account to check it out but hadn't tried any trips with it yet. My friend has hosted some people from all over the world and I really enjoyed the time we spent with them showing them around the mountains and being able to hear their awesome experiences. I hope to have the opportunity to travel as much as I can to be able to have a better understanding of the many cultures and lifestyles that are out there. I believe in good karma and welcome people to my home also hoping that someday I will be welcomed into a home when needed!

Interests

Snowboarding, music (playing as well as listening), hiking, camping, outdoor adventures, baseball... pretty much anything that involves physical activity or cool scenery.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy a wide variety of artists and genres. Some of my favorite artists are: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Alabama Shakes, Ben Howard, Bon Iver, Angus and Julia Stone, Daughter, The Head and the Heart, Phantogram and Jessica Lea Mayfield.

Don't watch too many movies because I don't have the attention span for them. Would rather be outside doing something active.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to South America when I was 19 until I was 21.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that one of the biggest ways we can influence the lives of others is through our example. I am a big believer of being true to yourself and others and to not hold anything back. "Practice what you preach" is a very cliche quote, but it is also a great motto for life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Have a spare room downstairs that has a couch with a pull out bed.
