I'm eager and excited to travel the world-- as I've already done most of the beautiful USA--as well as meet awesome people while I'm at it! Always ready to learn about new places/cultures and share a little bit about where I come from. I am currently living in Rodez, France where I am an assistant English teacher. Small towns are great, but I am ready to get out and explore!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and experiencing their culture from an authentic point of view. I am also very passionate about languages, so even learning a few words here and there makes the interaction worthwhile! The best way to travel is to meet local people who can tell you how to experience where you are in the right way. So, couch surfing is obviously the perfect means of doing just that.

Interests

Hiking/backpacking, playing any and all sports, eating delicious food (obviously), languages, coffee (a lot of coffee), road trips, live music, being outside as much as possible, and dancing.
