Alabama for 31 years, Montana for the last 2 years.

I love traveling and getting to know people from around the world. I want to see the world, and make as many friends and memories as possible along the way. I am adventurous and like to conquer my fears, for example I was terrified of skydiving but now I have done it twice! I love the feeling I get after I conquer something I am afraid of!

When traveling, I want to see the famous sites and then head someplace local for food and drinks, away from the touristy things. You can check out my Instagram here: @planningtowander

My boyfriend (Ryan) and I are planning a 3 month backpacking trip to Europe from late December to late March. We have tentative plans but would like to leave some things open for spontaneity. We'd love to hang out and experience Europe from a locals perspective!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling to new places and getting a locals perspective of the area. I also enjoy showing people around my own city! With CS'ing I get to make new friends and learn about their homes and cultures and share with them mine. It is a wonderful opportunity to make friends all over the world!
