I will be traveling for a few weeks in Uganda. Would love to meet up with people and explore the area together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am couchsurfing because I think it is a great way to meet new people with a common passion for travel. I love sharing cultures, ideas, and travel stories!

I would eventually like to host people myself, however with my current living situation I am unable to at this time.

Interests

- Swing dancing
- I love nature and the outdoors: bicycling, hiking, backpacking, and kayaking.
- Nerdy stuff, like board games and I have played Dungeon and Dragons with friends for the last few years. If you don't know what that is look up Critical Role's podcast and give it a listen.

Music, Movies, and Books

A few of my favorite musical artist currently are: Alice Merton, Tom Walker, Ben Howard, Ryan O'Reilly, and the Dead South. I also enjoy really terrible rap and pop music but only when I'm obnoxiously singing in my car.

As for movies and TV shows I like almost anything, however, Firefly will forever be my favorite.

I also love to read! The last book I read was Name of the Wind. I highly recommend it. I had random people stopping me every where I went to talk about this book.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- I have worked with midwives and assisted in delivering babies in Tanzania
- Stood within 10 ft from a Gorilla with nothing in-between us.
- I have backpacked around the entire base of Mount St. Helens (37.6 miles).
- I have driven across the U.S. four times (Washington to Florida and back).
- I've done a lot of other things as well so just ask! I love hearing about all the things other people have done too so we can share stories!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning anything you are willing to share!

What I Can Share with Hosts

- I'm not a very good cook but I can try and cook a meal or at least assist. However, it might be safer if I just buy you a drink or dinner in town...
- I can share stories and laughter.
- Information about the U.S. and the best places to see!
