CURRENT MISSION

Successful completion of the dirty dozen

ABOUT ME

I am between jobs after four years in Boulder. During my time there, I became a much more adept skier, climber, and biker. Now I've been traveling around and seeing new places, and maybe eventually finding a new job.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In my travels over the last few months, it's been great to meet couchsurfers along the way in towns I find myself in. In addition to taking advantage of the occasional coach and shower, I enjoy meeting interesting people for coffee or happy hour drinks or tagging along on tours of the best local hikes or climbing routes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed on a few couches along the way, and am also taking advantage of ride sharing and coffee meetup opportunities. I'll have a lot of karma to make up once I have a house again.

Interests

Learning more about the history of places, finding secluded hilltops and sitting on them for a minute or two before growing impatient, photographing interesting birds, cooking vegetables, scrambling across scree fields as thunderstorms roll in.
