I am a farmer and cheesemaker. I'm also a graduate student getting a degree in Sustainability and Land Management. I love traveling, WWOOFing, and meeting new people! I'm moving from the US to Japan in March and am looking forward to exploring.

I also enjoy knitting, baking, and hiking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of the main reasons I love traveling is meeting new people. It's the best way to get to know unique people all over the world, and to truly experience a place. I'm also always amazed how much I learn from people - there's so much I don't know, and so much knowledge that everyone around me has.
