I am always down for anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because some of the most memorable travel experiences have come when I have met locals and experienced the city with them or from their recommendations.

Interests

I am literally up for any new experience. I love to have conversations with new people to learn new perspectives on life. I love the outdoors. Trying new food, learning about new cultures, and am always down for a good beer. Also I enjoy cooking... but I am not the best.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My favorite thing that I have done was a 1 week service trip to Jamaica where we built a school. It was a very eye opening experience to see the differences between wants and needs in the United States and Jamaica. Also, interacting with the locals was a fun experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach hosts about United States culture. I have visited many different parts and lived in both the Midwest and Texas.

I want to learn all I can in the short time I will have in each city.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share travel stories but I think what I can offer most is my unique perspective and intellectual conversation. I have a desire to learn everything and discuss interesting topics. I have an open mind and will answer any questions.
