About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am a volunteer. I am a fly-fishing fiend and a friend of many animals. I play soccer with boys. I laugh often, play hard and like to hug trees.

ABOUT ME

I started traveling after I graduated college and don't know when I will stop. Right now I am volunteering in Moldova. After that I might want to backpack and fly fish parts of Europe. I sing, play football, ride horses, annoy my neighbors and hang-out outside as much as possible. Stateside I am driving endlessly around with my dog as copilot, hiking, fishing, skiing, camping, bumming... I have a degree in horse management (in simple terms) and a business degree but am currently not using either of them. Figures.

PHILOSOPHY

Sit, be still and listen,
because you're drunk
and we're at the edge of a roof.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like friends and couches..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in Ireland for the first time in 2010 and had a great experience. I hope to return the favor to others and continue this great social movement. Also couchsurfed in Colorado with newly found friends until I could find a place to rent that was dog friendly groovy.

Interests

movement, travel, new experiences, new friends, new trails, my dog, horses, pretty fishies, fly fishing, outdoorsy stuff, petting stray dogs, pretty much all types of music (my parents are musicians) and all that other fun stuff you would expect someone on couchsurfing to like.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oi, I hate this question, too much.. to little of space.. so much to talk about... Bring it up over a meet and greet and I'll fill you in on my brain's favs.

Music is art. Gota love it.

Movies are good. I don't watch them enough. Books are cool. I read em.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Yeah, well,that's just like your opinion, man...

Hate to talk about stuff like that on these things... It always comes off as bragging.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you cribbage and how to ride ponies, fly fish basics, hmm... make bbq sauce... My in depth knowledge is limited at this point... with age comes wisdom I hope..

I would like to learn how to garden. I feel like I only gained a brown thumb from growing up with horses.. Now I want a green one! And I am pretty terrible at cooking anything complicated. And fishing, I love to learn anything and everything about fishing :)
