CURRENT MISSION

Making the most of the spectacularly awesome (and dwindling) adventurous twenties that I have left before grad school/real life.

ABOUT ME

I feel like I'm filling out a resume. Here goes: excellent communication skills, team player, doesn't smell too bad. Greatest weakness: I work too hard.

Now that that's over with - I've been told I'm easy going. I enjoy meeting new people, swapping stories, and eating delicious, copious amounts of food.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By receiving generosity and sharing unconditionally with others, I hope to be reaffirming the belief, for myself and others, that human beings are inherently good and compassionate.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Most of my encounters haven't been through the cs website and have been more of a synchronicity; where there has been an opportunity to help, and the means to do so. I try to host when I'm stationary and look forward to using cs more when I'm on the move.

Interests

Always looking to try new things, go to new places, learn something new everyday. I love anything that has to do with the outdoors. Also, yoga, meditation, ya know - that whole spirituality thing. Food, microbrews, and world's largest anythings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A bear charging at me. Standing in the middle of a cornfield during a thunderstorm. Walking from Georgia to Maine on the Appalachian Trail.
