ABOUT ME

I've just finished my masters and have joined the workforce as an Engineer. I use every single vacation day I have to travel around the U.S. and the world. Right now I am trying to go to at least two new countries every year. When I can't get out of town, I just explore Northwest Arkansas. There is a lot of hiking, biking, and camping here, so I can always find a great way to spend the weekend.

PHILOSOPHY

Everyone deserves the right to be whoever they are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My favorite part about travelling alone are all the people I get to meet. The two best ways to do this are hostels and couchsurfing. I like couchsurfing better because it allows me to find cool people and sort of pick who I want to meet.

Interests

Searching for and through old book shops, drinking coffee from all over the world, developing my own sense of style but spending too much while shopping, and watching football (my favourite EPL team is Everton FC)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I accidentally signed up for a sailing lesson in Barcelona, thinking I was going on an evening cruise. Now I know a little bit about sailing, and I try to do it in every seaside town I visit.
