CURRENT MISSION

Funding my travels, working abroad, and writing stories. I plan on going back to school in a few years for a master's degree in creative writing.

ABOUT ME

I'm from the United States. I just recently caught the travel bug after spending two months in Southeast Asia. Now I'm volunteering in Chile and hope to teach English. After a few years I plan on heading to Europe to live in Spain. I've studied Creative Writing and Chemistry at University and think that knowledge is beautiful and contagious. I love learning from all experiences and people I run into. I'm very easy going and it takes a lot to throw me out of my good mood.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that traveling is best when you get to meet people who live in the place you are visiting.

Interests

Traveling, learning Spanish, books, writing, music appreciator, tattoos, making friends all over the world. I like going out and meeting people but also like a low-key night with friends and beers. I enjoy most situations.
