Hey! I'm an American backpacker whose been traveling for about a year now. I spent 3 months in Thailand working at an animal sanctuary, I backpacked around Australia for another 6 months, and now I've been in the UK for about 3 months. My flight back to the States is on June 21st so I don't have much time left!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be honest mainly to save money, but some of my fondest memories while traveling has been when I lived with or adventured around with random other backpackers. We all have amazing stories to be told and can all learn a few things from each other!

Interests

I feel like some of these questions are a bit redundent but definitely the environment, wildlife, petting every dog, photography, meditation, occasional yoga, going on adventures, playing and listening to music, videogames, science, working out, movies, and having a few beers with good company!

• animals
• photography
• yoga
• meditation
• pub crawls
• traveling
• volunteering
• adventures
• organic farming

Music, Movies, and Books

I love rock and punk music (Rise Against is literally the best band ever) but I still groove along to most music. I'm definitely not picky.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While working at the sanctuary in Thailand, I was lucky enough to help rehabilitate 2 adolescent orangutans for several hours everyday...But if this section is just for one amazing thing then well I once got bit by a monoclad cobra, received no treatment, and didn't die 😎

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a bachelor's degree in Organismal Biology and love animals, farming, and the environment. I know a very small amount of Spanish, but can help teach English if you would want some help!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some fun stories, help around the house/yard, interesting points of view, a pretty chill hangout buddy, and probably a few other things that I can't think of right now!
