I recently graduated from Lehigh University and I'm looking to immerse myself in the outdoor communities of Wyoming, Idaho and Colorado. I was the VP of my university's outing club - it was the most fulfilling responsibility of my life. I am big into rock climbing (I have a trad rack for climbing in the 'Gunks), ice climbing (have a setup for climbing in NH), and skiing. I just completed a Winter Outdoor Eduactor course through NOLS in the Bridger-Teton National Forest. I love people who want to share their passions with me - especially if those passions are about experiencing flow - be that in the backcountry or a warehouse yoga studio.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I want to expand my community. People can be amazing, and I want to get to know more of them. Different perspectives on life help me frame what truly interests me. There are tons of reasons! Why would someone want to stay in a stuffy hotel room when they could meet an equally adventurous person who wants to push their boundaries by sharing the things that are most important to them.

Musica, film e libri

Huge fan of Jack Johnson. I dabble with Courtney Barnett, ALO, Dr. Dog, TV Girl, Miniature Tigers, Greta Van Fleet, Sturgill Simpson, Jimi Hendrix, and Glass Animals.

Love the books Let my People go Surfing, Homo Sapiens, and Homo Deus.

I love movies but don't go out of my way to watch them. I'll do it socially, but it's not my preferred way of connecting with people. I just watched Klaus on Netflix - loved it.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I lived on a bio-reserve ashram in India for 5 weeks, learning about their practices, mindset and goals so that I could represent them at the United Nations in NYC for 2 years.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I am big into outdoor education. I think that radical sustainable practices could be used by businesses to revert global climate issues. My goal is to use my education in busniess, design and Asian studies to help companies like NOLS and Patagonia to make a bigger difference in the world. I'm a nice person and I'm looking to learn how to be a better one.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I'm a decent climber and know how to make a mean stir fry. My mentality is shaped by science as much as it is business, making my perspectives somewhat unique. I care about listening to listen instead of listening to respond. My goal is to make myself a better person by sharing experiences with others that can make them better people as well.
