Hi I'm Annie. I'm a Colorado native who loves adventure and exploring in whatever capacity I can find. I'm an outdoor enthusiast and love skiing, climbing, hiking, mountaineering, mountain biking, and backpacking. I also am an avid ultimate frisbee player. I am an artist and work in a variety of mediums. I love traveling and exploring new places, meeting locals, immersing in new cultures, and tasting local and exotic dishes. I consider myself a lifelong learner and love learning from my friends and people I meet, as well as teaching others around me and spreading cool ideas. I graduated from Colorado College in 2017 with a major in molecular biology and minor in studio art.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a recent college student I have little money to explore, adventure, and travel. I am also quite interested in meeting locals and interesting, awesome people wherever my travels take me. I believe in community strongly and helping your fellow neighbor or friend, and I think Couchsurfing is an extension of this, part of making us all more human and helping to connect people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I always travel with paints and I would love to teach you how to paint! I also love card games and other games and will be quick to break out playing cards. I have lived in Asia for a bit and love Asian cooking, and will cook you Asian food or any American dishes you wish! If you ever want to come visit me in Colorado in the USA I will gladly host you and show you the wonders of my state.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share all of my aforementioned passions and knowledge based on those things. I can share my enthusiasm, my art, cooking skills, ability to connect with people, fun games, and a new friendship.
