CURRENT MISSION

Learn more about the world and myself. Treat people with kindness

ABOUT ME

I'm outdoorsy and "sciency", but love music, art, history, and pop culture. I'm a little shy at first, but once you get to know me, I'm warm and witty. I enjoy a good, respectful debate...especially over a good cup of coffee. Or beer...

PHILOSOPHY

not to be summed up in a couple of sentences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first time trying out the couchsurfing website, although when I was hiking, I relied on the kindness of strangers all the time (hitchhiking, meals, couch surfing). I would like to return some of the kindness that has been shown to me.
