I'm a senior at Stanford University majoring in Earth Systems. I'm really passionate about the environments, especially wildlife conservation. I've done research on cheetahs in Namibia and jaguars in Brazil. I love adventures and traveling. I love horses and dancing more than anything. I rode Western for my school's equestrian team and am currently in their salsa dancing performance group. Before college, I did competitive Irish dancing for several years. I love telling and listening to stories. I think photography is a cool way to enhance experiences and share memories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I decided to give couchsurfing a shot since last minute I decided to go to South Lake Tahoe in order to meet someone involved in wolf conservation (and to meet their "wolf ambassador"). Still in college so I can't really host people yet. Only heard positive experiences from friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite book is Lord of the Rings.

Music: country (but classic country not the pop crap on the radio).

Hiked El Camino de Santiago, a pilgrimage in Northern Spain

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share my photos, but I'm still learning and would love to get tips from people. Practicing Portuguese is a plus. I can teach salsa dancing and Texas two step.
