Californian native, I love camping, backpacking, traveling, meeting new people, experiencing new adventures and exploring. I've lived in Mongolia as a Peace Corps volunteer for 2 years, and I've got lots of stories to share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A great opportunity to meet locals who have a better perspective on what their town has to offer.
