Hi my name is Allyson, but I go by Ally. I would describe myself as a young adult just trying to experience what the world has to offer. I have been an Emergency Medical Technician for 7 years and have worked on an ambulance for the duration of that period. I am currently studying to go into psychiatric nursing. I love traveling and experiencing new things. I have a loveable cat and bearded dragon waiting for me at home lol, no hubby and kids as of yet. I also do Lyft back home to get out of my house and make some traveling money, I love meeting new people and hearing their stories as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel like it's the best and most affordable way to experience a new city and it's potential. You can really find some hidden gems when you talk to the locals.

Interests

• hiking
• camping
• craft beer

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is so vast I couldn't begin to try and describe it... but my favorite band is modest mouse! My favorite books are the Inheritance series, and my favorite movies are Memoirs of a Geisha and V for Vendetta.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I immigrated from the little prairie of Canada (aka Saskatchewan) to Southern California when I was 12 years old. It was certainly an adventure but I think surviving such a move at a vulnerable age prepared me for a life of throwing myself into new cultures.

Teach, Learn, Share

Honestly a little confused by this box.... all important aspects of the human experience?
