I have been in my profession for over 4 years and have just completed my advanced education. So here I am! Ready to start exploring the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am hoping for a uniquely wonderful Oktoberfest experience and to travel a little September 2015. I studied German in high school and at university, and I am very excited to finally explore the history and culture in person! Unfortunately my German has slipped to "conversational" at best!

I will be traveling Europe for nearly a month, and nothing excites me more than all of the new experiences I will have! I am just ready to jump in! Also on my list is Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, and....? I am trying to limit my destinations to spend quality time in each location.

At home my couch is comfortable and often available. I live in a centrally-located neighborhood. I love my city and will gladly share it with you! --Depending on how cool my roommates are :)

Interests

Running, cycling, paddling, or anything outside! Keeping open-minded to new experiences and what the world has to offer.

I intend to walk and go for runs in these cities, and I want to see historical sites and museums during the day. At night I hope to see the local music scene!

Also I am an animal lover.
