I'm a recent college grad with 10 months off before starting my job in tech consulting. Since finishing school, I spent 3 months solo backpacking southeast Asia, 3 months working in Madrid as an au pair, and now I'm starting a 2 month trip backpacking central and eastern Europe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see what life is like outside the US. My travel style has switched from "see all the things in the guide book" to "hang out, eat, drink, and get a bit lost", which lends itself to Couchsurfing!

Interests

I love all kinds of food, warm weather, live music, and traveling. I'm a second degree black belt in Taekwondo and used to teach a class, but don't worry I can't beat you up anymore, I'm out of practice. I listen to a lot of podcasts and my favorites are 99% Invisible, Freakonomics, and Song Exploder.
