About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life and be a good person

ABOUT ME

I'm a 23 year old American working as a proofreader at a law frim in Prague. I was born and raised in Kentucky (insert your KFC reference here) and went to university in Iowa where I read a lot of books and hung out with lots delightfully weird people amongst the cornfields.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf and I host, (almost) always with pleasant results.

Interests

I like reading, movies, music, theatre, singing, art (looking at it, not making it), photography, writing, friends, and fried cheese sandwiches (which alone are reason enough to visit Prague).
