I'm a current student at UTC in Tennessee. My major is creative writing and my minor is French. I spent a semester studying in Grenoble, France, and had the opportunity to visit a few other countries while in Europe. I love bicycling, dogs and cats, reading, drawing, soccer and playing fiddle. I'm very relaxed and pretty quiet. Though, I'm a tad shy, I love meeting new people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling, but am on a student budget. Plus, through Couchsurfing I'm able to meet and connect with people in a way that just wouldn't be possible in a hotel or hostel.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love conversations, and can talk with folks for a long time. I'm pretty neat and clean, so I won't leave behind a huge mess. I love talking about poetry, literature, and art to name a few, but I also enjoy learning about new subjects. I can cook and bake pretty well, and am more than willing to do so for a host. If anyone has a violin or banjo, I can probably pick a few tunes out for whoever wants!
