About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to see the world

ABOUT ME

I am a third-year university student living in the Hague, Netherlands from January-August 2011. I love the Netherlands and contrary to popular belief Dutch food is awesome! One word: stroopwafels. yum! I probably have the biggest sweet tooth you will ever encounter; ice cream is my favorite food followed closely by chocolate and peanut butter. I love the beach, going on adventures, sparkles, indie music, and appletinis. Hibiscus flowers are my favorite because they remind me of the summertime. I want to travel to as many places as possible during my time in Europe and would love to meet fellow couchsurfers along the way! I love trying new things and am always ready to have a good time!

PHILOSOPHY

Pura Vida. The journey is the destintation

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am brand new to couchsurfing and I am excited to begin my couchsurfing adventures! Unfortunately, I cannot host because I am living in university housing but if you are in the Clemson, South Carolina area after August 2011, I would be happy to host you!

Interests

I love the beach, music, traveling, meeting new people and trying new things. I have always wanted to go bungee jumping and sky diving. I know it's very superficial but I LOVE reading celebrity gossip- it's addicting and there is no cure as of yet. I also love finding random hilarious videos on youtube.
