Avid cyclist frequently bike packing. Hosting friends when home and meeting new ones from my bike.

I love deep conversations, big ideas, open mindedness. I've been practicing mindfulness, stretching, meditation, experimenting with ecstatic dance and want to expand my perception. I love to bike- mountain or road, in the summer I do lots of wakeboarding, surfing, exploring, backpacking, playing soccer. In the winter I love to snowboard, hike, climb... basically anything outdoors.

I love to have a good time but am not a "party animal." I would rather get into a cool situation with weird people than just drink and go to a club. I love to dance, stay up late, etc but do not like to get excessively drunk. If you are a host that needs to get up early I will respect that and make sure to be quiet.

Since I have begun my travels I have begun writing in a journal, been reading a lot, trying to draw, and meeting new people. I love hearing peoples stories and try to learn as much as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it is super awesome to meet new people. I think it is really great to have a community of travelers. Its a great way to meet people, be spontaneous, and help people out. Please don't contact me if you are just looking for a free place.

Music, Movies, and Books

Courtney Barnett, girl-Cali-surf-pop-rock

I am currently reading lots of economic and social/policy opinions and analyses.

I absolutely love music. I play guitar, bass, piano, drums. I listen to a wide variety of stuff but not very much pop unless its at a dance party. My spotify is spikey.mikey7 if you are interested in what my current jams are.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Landed a backflip on a snowboard and wakeboard.
