About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find the end of the world, and then look for the beginning

ABOUT ME

A 30something who has been bouncing between living in ski towns all over the world, and backpacking when there is no snow.
Snowboarding, travelling, new experinces, meeting new people, and having surprises of all kinds are what life is all about for me right now.
I thought I would be doing this for a year or two, and twelve years later I am still at it and can't imagine stopping.

PHILOSOPHY

You only live once, you only get one chance, so take the leap

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

On here to network and expand my horizons, and as soon as I have my own couch, it'll be available

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have slept on couches in Germany and Argentina through couch surfing, as well as in numerous other countries through social connections. I have also hosted 3 surefers during those rare times when I actually have a couch myself

Interests

Snowboarding, travelling, reading, writing, making new connections and friends, experiencing everything that I can

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Annapurna circut in Nepal. Out of 12 years of wandering all over the world, that was one of the pinnacles. I also could never forget hitchhiking across Iceland and camping wherever I could while doing that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a snowboard instructor and also speak 3 languages, and am always very happy to be able to pass on some of that knowledge

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have some pretty entertaining travel travel stories after 5 continents and 50something countries. I also enjoy cooking with hosts, talking politics and history and just about anything else
