Hello!
I'm a Washington State native and for the most part grew up just outside of Portland, Oregon. Living here treated me to the lovely natural surroundings of the Pacific Northwest and I am now and forever enchanted by nature. I'm an adventurous person, and love to learn- both through reading, and by meeting new people of all cultures.
From the Summer of 2015-Spring 2016, I travelled for 10 months on the west coast of North America, and then southern Chile and Argentina. I now go to school in British Columbia, where I study environmental science and ethnoecology.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

It seems to be an enriching and practical way for me to get around this planet and I'd love to help out other travelers too!
