Growing up in Southeast Alaska, I spent as much time as possible outside, almost always in spite of the weather. Which has given be a great respect, and admiration, for all things wild and natural. I've been working in some capacity (part, full or multiple jobs) for over a decade and have finally decided it's time to go explore the rest of this beautiful world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am, unfortunately, very new to travel and am looking for a great way to find places to stay AND expedite my adventures by sharing stories and experiences with new people . I have also always been very personable and so traveling alone can be well... lonely.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music of all kinds: Jazz and Big Band, Hip Hop and R&B, Rock and Folk. I'll listen to just about anything. I'm a big fan of all things comedy, if it makes me laugh, I'll probably love it. I guess more, just anything that makes you feel; laughter, sadness, or joy, just something that forces me to connect with it. Music, movie, or book, anything that makes me see things differently or feel differently is my type of entertainment.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In November of 2017 I decided to take the largest chance of my life and embark on a backpacking trip across southeast Asia, I am currently in the midst of that endeavor and am learning and growing everyday.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes, all of those.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have an exceptional knowledge of most things bar related (booze, recipes and technique) and can mix up some incredible concoctions if you like to enjoy a mixed drink. While I have had little travel experience I have had unique experiences and would love to regal those stories to you and, of course, listen to any you are willing to share.
