About Me

27 year old red head living in Baltimore City. I'm focusing on pursuing a career in wilderness/outdoor education as well as farming. I'm an in the closet "homesteader" apparently haha. I enjoy baking bread and being crafty in the kitchen. I spend a lot of time rock climbing and practicing classical guitar. I really enjoy a good beer and being outside. I like to think I'm pretty funny and I hope to bring out the whimsy in everyone I'm close to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to allow new people to float into our lives. Being in new places is exciting and can be stressful so it's cool to be providing that space or be able to stay with a local.

Interests

Lead climbing, organic markets, herbs/plants, cooking, meditation, stories, tasty beverages, guitar, urban exploration, WWOOFING, tattoos, nutrition, expanding consciousness, cartoons, videogames, searching for new music.

Punk, metal, and Boards of Canada.

Attention span too short for novels but I really enjoy cookbooks (just read Tartine Bread recently).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sat on the greenest, rolling hill in Ireland and watched the clouds float by.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll teach you how to climb rocks, cook some awesome food, chill in your PJ's and watch cartoons. We can crawl around in an abandoned Tuberculosis sanitarium.
