CURRENT MISSION

To put foundations under my castles.

Currently living in Boston, Massachusetts.

ABOUT ME

Hey I'm Aimee, i'm not very good at explaining myself with limited characters but i'll try! I carry a hammock with me at all times, I've been working/living in hostels for about 3 years, so it's safe to say that I love people. I love being outside, I'm always searching for waterfalls or beaches. If we cross paths, it will probably be on a trail and you should definitely come with me.

PHILOSOPHY

“If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.” -HDT

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been using Couchsurfing since May of 2014. It has helped me across the United States and through my trip across South East Asia. I have stayed with hosts that I will hold dear to my heart. I'm on CS to learn all I can from locals. When I travel I like to really immerse myself in what its like to be a local. Couch surfing is the way to go. I find jobs at hostels all around the world and I love every second of it, aside from not being able to host. One day, I will offer y'all my couch, I promise :)
