Hey guys! I'm new to couch surfing- at least in terms of attempting to utilize it. :) I love to travel but have somehow made my way without needing to bum off of too many strangers, but I am learning how incredibly valuable meeting new people can be and would like to be more intentional about it!
I am 28 and living as freely as possible. I shoot weddings a ton, but having my own business has allowed me to make my own schedule and get out of Ohio as much as humanly possible. I'll be out West for 9 weeks this winter, and am moving to Asheville, NC upon my return to the East.
I love to climb, hike/backpack, lazy paddle... pretty much anything outdoors. I suck at skiing/snowboarding/rafting though. ;)
Have a passion for art, movies, music, and literature. Specifically books about mountaineering, and even more specifically books by Ed Viesturs. <3

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't claim to know enough to teach things to many, but interactions always provide someone with more insight than they once had I believe. I'm passionate about learning all I can from others, and sharing in meaningful experiences that will help me grow as a person.
