CURRENT MISSION

Never settle for anything less than everything.

ABOUT ME

I've lived in a small town in Kansas most of my life (I'm talking no stop lights, no movie theater, more cows than people small).  I graduated from Kansas State University in 2010, and have made it my mission to travel as much as possible! I just wrapped up a year teaching English in Incheon, South Korea. After my contract, I backpacked about 5 weeks through Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos. I'm currently back at home enjoying holidays with my family and after the New Year I will head to Australia with a one-year working holiday visa.

PHILOSOPHY

“If I'd learnt one thing from traveling, it was that the way to get things done was to go ahead and do them. Don't talk about going to Borneo. Book a ticket, get a visa, pack a bag, and it just happens.” ― Alex Garland, The Beach

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still a newbie to couch surfing, but hope to participate more in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not many people ever want to couch surf in Kansas, so I've yet to have a change to host! However, I'm hoping to try my luck with CS in Australia.
