Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to host a friendly surfer in Boulder!!
ABOUT ME
I am currently working for Boulder County Transportation in Boulder, CO.
I like to play frisbee, rock climb and bike everywhere.
I love travelling and am so grateful that my parents brought me and my sister along on all of their trips when we were kids- now I am hooked and I can't imagine not travelling.
I was studying in Denmark and loving it. Last semester, my professors have also gotten me to sketch a lot more and now I draw all the time and usually have 2-4 sketchbooks with me.
I like meeting new people while travelling, learning something of the way locals actually live and trying to learn new languages.
One final thing: if I have a bike and a map of where I am, I'm pretty much a happy camper:)
i am open-minded, don't mind strange situations and want to climb on top of any inviting obstacle. I am spontaneous, somewhat of a mess in terms of planning my life but I have fun as long as i am in good company:)
PHILOSOPHY
don't knock it til you've tried it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
