Penn State Class of 2016—Plant Science with a focus in Horticulture/ Arboriculture Currently living/working in Spring City, PA- a town with just as many cows as there are people. My work slows down during the winter and I’m trying to fill the gap with traveling/hosting. I have chickens as well as a dog named Waggles. Don’t let the name fool you he’s a good bird dog when he’s not napping or looking for treats!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
“Every friend starts out as a stranger” The world is a lot smaller than it used to be (metaphorically 😄) and apps such as Couchsurfing let me meet new and amazing people.
Music, Movies, and Books
My Spotify is Diversified— Anything from Led Zeppelin, the Pop-punk scene, Kenny Chesney, OutKast, Reggeton even some New Orleans style jazz as well as R&B
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Bought a one way ticket from Philadelphia to Madrid with no idea of how long I’d be in Europe. 5 countries and 5 weeks later I landed back in the US with an even bigger hunger to get out and see the world. My Running List of Unique Places I’ve Ice Skated: -San Diego, CA 🇺🇸 -Phoenix, AZ 🇺🇸 -Milan, Italy 🇮🇹 -Bucharest, Romania 🇷🇴 - Barcelona, Spain 🇪🇸 - Vienna, Austria 🇦🇹
