I'll be 26 this summer, but I feel nowhere near ready to grow up. I'm not sure I ever will be. For a living I work seasonal jobs and do not feel uncomfortable with the instability. I relish the opportunity to soak up all the culture, personalities and experiences that come with every place that I visit. After experiencing the little that I have thus far in my life, I feel antsy to see it all - and I intend to. This summer I will be working as an ecologist in Vale, Oregon. I'll be traveling from Pennsylvania and I'm hoping to meet some people on my way out west.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I've only ever gained something from each stay. I'm a huge sap and the people I meet in my life help me figure out who I am and I believe make me a better person. Meeting people from different areas can give you a different outlook on most things.

Interests

Swimming underwater, hanging upside-down, opals, being scared, conversations, ice cream, long drives, aliens, whiskey, collecting books and inspiring people are also my favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I try do something amazing for myself most days. I don't have one favorite thing that I've done. I've had a lot of experiences that I can look back to and smile.

Teach, Learn, Share

If I have an interest or hobby that you don't know much about or would like to try -I'm more than willing to show you or teach you.
