I love to be in the mountains and forests. My weekend warrior activities includes rock climbing and skiing.

Values that guide my life:
- Empathy: put your pride aside and yourself in other people's shoes
- Playfulness: be serious when you need to, but don't take everything to heart that doesn't truly matter
- Safety: nothing is ever worth your life
- Frugality: live within your means; finance your future; save
- Trust yourself: your gut usually knows what's best

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love meeting travelers and explorers from around the worlds. It opens your eyes to how big the world truly is and how possible things can be.

Intereses

My primary activity is rock climbing. I've been a climber for years and am primarily a traditional climber.

My life is determined by the seasons. In the summer and fall, you'll find me on the rocks of Yosemite and Lake Tahoe area. Winter is reserved for skiing. Spring is for mountaineering.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I teach rock climbing as a side hustle.
