I like to consider myself a Globean. I want to see the world and learn about the way other people live. Home is where the environmental research, climbing crag, ski slope, or my dog are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing so I can pay it forward for all the times I have been hosted in another country or state. I also hope to continue being hosted myself because there is no better way to get to know a new place than to stay with a local. I don't care about the tourist sites, I can see those on google. I want to eat at the "hole in the wall" restaurant, bike on the beaten path to beer, or see the secret spot with the best view of neature.

Music, Movies, and Books

Sapiens is 100% the best book ever written. My favorite song changes all the time, but I always appreciate "More Than a Feeling" by Boston. Movies are one of my favorite things so I love most of them. Especially Pretty Woman.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved to Italy, alone, so I could research how I can leave the planet better than I found her.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach sports because I love the way the body moves. I love to learn languages. I love to share laughter.

I can make a mean espresso and cook a variety of cuisines. I can also share interesting conversation and sarcasm.
