I'm a lover of history, nature, art & design, and culture. I love to travel, especially through U.S. National Parks. I'm a graduate of Oregon State University with a B.S. in Apparel Design and Minors in Business & Entrepreneurship and Merchandising. I'm an avid photographer and writer, I practice darkroom photography, as well as digital photography.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm traveling through Europe Sept. 16th-Nov. 4th 2015.

I want an authentic European experience, I feel the best advice I've gotten while traveling has been from locals. I feel like I would miss out on a whole dimension of traveling if I didn't make it a goal to meet people.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I'm a very neat and tidy person. I believe in having good manners, respect, and showing gratitude. I love to talk (but I know when to stop), and I'm a "collector of fun facts," and using them while playing pub trivia. I've can share a lot of knowledge about traveling in the Pacific Northwest (U.S.A.) and west coast National Parks.
