I am a 6th grade mathematics teacher in Rapid City, SD. I enjoy my summers off and love to travel when I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have not had much experience with couch surfing but I have enjoyed the few people I have hosted. I enjoy meeting new people and hearing their unique stories.

Interests

I love to be outdoors. Mountain biking is my new favorite thing. When I can find time off of work I love to go on backpacking trips. I want to learn how to sail eventually but I am far away from any large body of water. I have skydived and bungee jumped on the coast of Australia. I enjoy cooking on the weekends. Want to build things out of wood but want better tools.
