I work in public relations in one of the most beautiful corners of the world - northwest Montana! I love to work out, travel (naturally!) and write when I'm not on the job. I am a friendly and open-minded person who loves to see news places, engage in great conversation over delicious food and good vodka. I love animals and am accepting of people of all cultures/religions/sexual orientations, etc.
I am proficient in writing, photography, cooking a mean breakfast and singing in the shower. Other notable talents include car-dancing, being a good listener and sketching.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm trying to maximize my ability to travel, but also to meet local folks in the places I go. I really enjoy connecting with people and learning from their experiences while sharing my own.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed a few times in Dublin and also in the US- met lots of great folks and visited spots I never would have found on my own.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-- I spent 2 months as a photo intern for the US Army at Fort Knox and rappelled off a 50 ft wall
-- I went scuba diving and para-sailing in Mexico
-- I've spent about 2 months, off and on, photographing and learning about Irish Travellers in the Dublin area
-- I got kicked off the bus at the Kosovo-Serbia border in the middle of winter (and lived to tell the tale!)
-- I've hearded cattle on a ranch in Montana

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be happy to share what I know about photography/journalism and life in Montana.

I'd love to learn, well....pretty much anything! I really enjoy picking up local phrases/lingo and information about different cultures and ways of life. And did I mention food? Always down to talk about food.
