Hi! My name is Barrett Appleton and I'm 22 years old. I was born and raised in Arkansas. While spending the majority of my life in Arkansas, I have been able to enjoy the beauty that comes with it. I love being on the go, doing new things and I am wide open to new experiences. I am a fun loving guy that likes traveling to new places and meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just recently heard about Couchsurfing and thought it was an awesome idea. The next day I had to sign up. My girlfriend and I were planning a trip to Alaska when we heard about it and it completely changed the way we wanted to travel.

At the moment I am in-between houses and traveling so I do not have a place to host.
