CURRENT MISSION

Eastern Europe

ABOUT ME

I love to travel! I'm very easy going, energetic, and eager to learn about new people and other cultures. I recently returned to school after some years off because the working world got to boring for me and I wanted to learn again.

PHILOSOPHY

Long story.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've only been a surfer so far, but am willing to host. I'll be travelling in Europe in the summer of 2013. I will for sure be in Warsaw and Zurich, but other locations are up in the air, I'm open to suggestions.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Granada: met some fellow couch surferes and had an amazing experience seeing the sites and eating more tapas than I thought my belly could hold.

Outside of the CS site, I have hosted exchange students from Warsaw and Frankfurt at my house in Delaware. Both were great experiences and have become good friends.

Interests

Site-seeing, outdoors stuff, food and drinks, sports, music, other cultures and their history, meeting interesting new people. I like to experience everything I can in a new city or else I don't feel like I've really been there. I tend to be down for whatever and will even try new things that don't appear all that great to me.
