Overview
About Me
I was born in Boulder, Colorado and have lived there my whole life. I recently graduated Elon University in North Carolina. I love traveling around and meeting new people/experiencing new cultures. I am in Chile now
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm pretty new to this but I really like the culture behind it. It all seems very open minded and welcoming.
I personally don't know many people outside of my bubble and I would love to hear others' stories and experiences. I think to really learn about other cultures and people, you need to be immersed on a much more individual level and couchsurfing is the perfect means to get to that level. If anything what the world needs now are those personal connections.
Interests
I really like spending time outside - skiing, hiking, walking or even just standing and looking around.
Over the past few summers, I've been working at a summer camp in Minnesota on a lake (of course) and one of my favorite activities of all time is sailing.
