As a young girl, I always dreamed of adventures in far away places. My curious mind always wanted to learn more about what lay beyond the borders of America. At ten years old I started the creation of what I called my "Adventure List" which consisted of seventeen destinations that I wanted to visit. As a senior in high school, I finally got on an airplane for the first time and traveled to New York City. NYC was the first destination that I had placed on my list as a girl. Finally being able to achieve one of my goals made me feel like I could do the impossible. Before I leave this earth, I plan on visiting everywhere on my list, and I can only hope that I am able to spread kindness and joy everywhere I go.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

September 2018 I will be traveling to Barcelona, Spain and I am researching all that I can in order to prepare for this trip. This will be my first international travel experience, and I want to make sure that I have everything ready in time.

Música, películas y libros

My favorite books are Vince Flynn's American Assassin novels (excited for the movie adaptation in Sept. 2017) and The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. I do not really have a favorite music genre. I am always switching it up depending on how I am feeling at the time. And finally, my favorite movie is The Notebook...just kidding haha. My all time favorite movie is The Internship, but I also love a lot of movies from the 1980s. Classics like Michael J Fox's "Back to the Future", Tom Cruise's "Cocktail", "Flashdance", "Footloose", and Tom Hank's "Big" are all fantastic '80s movies that I absolutely love.

Algo increíble que he hecho

At seventeen years old, I learned about an issue that plagues this earth known as Human Trafficking. I did a research project in school that opened my eyes to a world that I did not realize existed. I grew up in a quiet and safe home in the country. Things like trafficking simply did not happen....or so I thought. I learned that NC (my home state) was one of top trafficking states in America. That fact struck me like lightning. That is when I decided that if I did not stand up and try to make a difference, no one would. Now, I am an End It Ambassador. I raise awareness of the prevalence of human trafficking in the hopes of one day ending it.
