I live in Colorado and work in the outdoor industry. Also in school studying GIS (I make maps). I love to be outside! I don’t drink or smoke or eat meat, but am in no way opposed to others doing so. I’ve very active, open-minded, and soft-spoken. Spend a lot of time in wilderness places when I can. I value balance and compassion. I love weirdness. I ask a lot of questions. I've had a CouchSurfing account for a while, but have yet to use it.
