I am a lover of the Earth and learn from every landscape I travel through. I am from the Midwest (Kansas city), but my home is the west coast. I have a degree in forest ecology and have worked on farms on the northwest coast of Canada, the high desert of central Oregon, and the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. I currently work for a non-profit building a native plant nursery, nurturing genetics of the redwood forest, and hosting a podcast on the coast of California, but am taking some downtime to explore the southeast. I am easy going and love getting to know people from all backgrounds!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I am hoping to meet locals and connect with good folks as I travel!..... I have couchsurfed before while on a road trip... in New Orleans, Tucson, and San Diego.... although it was with my friend,whose account we used. Look at Megan's references (she has given me one) to see our joint references!
