Colorado Native, born in Colorado Springs but moved to Denver 5 years ago. I like to stay active and be outside and Colorado is a perfect place for that.
I've traveled quite a bit and am always eager to see more of the world. I spent a semester in Buenos Aires studying abroad and then took some time afterward to travel around South America. I've also been to Asia and Europe and it's on my bucket list to visit the remaining 2 continents.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To pay it forward. I've met some incredible people while on the road and I want to return the favor. I know that it's the people even more than the places that make traveling so rewarding.

Interests

Table tennis! I love to play ping pong and I've been taking training classes and getting coaching so I can compete in tournaments.
I love to read and am in a couple of books clubs (never fear- they're just as much wine clubs as they are about the books).
I like music of all kinds and am in a hand bell choir and play piano.
