I come from Texas, studied abroad in Europe, and live in Nashville after graduating from Belmont University. I work for a kids media company just outside of Nashville. I love people and hearing their stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I surfed once when I was in Europe and had the best experience. Now I'm back in the states. I have roomies that aren't keen on couchsurfing but once I have or have my own place I'd like to host. Otherwise I'm willing to hang out.

Interests

Dance parties, traveling, snow-skiing, food trucking (I worked on one for a year), talking to strangers on airplanes, spending the summer on double-decker pontoons.
