CURRENT MISSION

To learn, experience, and juice every emotion out of life, then return it full of love.

ABOUT ME

Hello there! I'm a 26yr old that left her advertising job in Chicago to travel the world. I love art, music, traveling, tea, coffee, and sweets! I'm reliable, dependable, honest, and have a genuine drive to learn as much as I can, about the world, others, and myself. I enjoy a good book, hiking, and most of all learning.

PHILOSOPHY

In helping others we help ourselves. The world is a beautiful place, and the more you learn another's story, the more you enrich your own.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed with about 9 hosts in the past 2 years. Ever since i started being a part of couchsurfing, i don't like to travel any other way. This is a wonderful community of life seekers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love couchsurfing. It has deepened by love for this world, humanity, and for travel. I seek to hear as many stories as i can, turning strangers into lifetime friends.

Interests

I like to challenge my body with physical activity, like running. I enjoy exploring new things on my own, and LOVE movies. Music, books, photography, painting, coffee drinking (yes that's an interest haha)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have travelled to Honduras three times to help build schools and children's homes with an organization called Students Helping Honduras

I didn't have the money to backpack through Europe and Asia post college- so thought, hmmm USA here I come! I decided to bus and hitchhike my way from coast to coast. I wanted to touch the Atlantic and then make my way west to the Pacific. I met the most incredible people, and got to know the country I live in. It's a beautiful place, and I am now addicted to getting to know people and places.
I have flown a plane along the Chicago Skyline, per my profile pic.

I'd like to think that the best of me is yet to come..... :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe we all have a story to share- I want to hear and learn from it. I seek strangers with open minds and hearts, that will soon become friends.
