I grew up in a small town in the rural US, and I've spent my entire adult life trying to expand the limited horizons I had growing up. Travel is my favorite medium to learn and experience new things. I take every opportunity I can to travel - I studied in Switzerland for a semester during university and spent 8 months of the last year in Morocco for an internship. I live for pushing myself out of environments that I'm comfortable in.

Right now I'm trying to travel as much as I can before I start medical school and the ensuing years of torturous studies in August.

You can take a peek at how I present myself on social media via Twitter and instagram @amymeowz for some personal insight if you're interested (spoiler: I'm pretty goofy).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people is definitely my favorite part of traveling. I love having access to an entire community of friendly locals on Couchsurfing.
