Overview
About Me
I’m an aspiring YA novelist. Fingers crossed I’ll publish this year! I decided to take some time and leave the states for a few months to wonder aimlessly through Europe and the UK and I’ve been doing just that.
I'm a pretty easy going, clean individual who LOVES to cook and eat even more. I'm an avid hiker/backpacker and practice yoga regularly. I love adventuring into unknown situations especially if i get to meet new and interesting people. While I love socializing I appreciate me-time and need it to decompress and because of such, can be quiet as a mouse when needed.
Anything else you'd like to know? Ask or listen to my podcast at www.chicktalkwith.com.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My favorite part about backpacking, is not the endless miles of antagonizing mountains to climb, but the people I meet along the way. Same goes for traveling. Every person has a story, a hobby, a home and I'd like to listen and learn about each one. The best way to do that? Make a random new friend, open your eyes and unclog those ears.
Seven years ago, I used to host myself and each time it was greater than the next.

Music, Movies, and Books
The song "Here Comes the Sun" emulates me perfectly.
I've read "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho at least a dozen times.
I love old black and white movies.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm pretty sure deciding to pack up all my belongings and travel for an unknown period of time counts. If not...
Recently: renting a car and driving around the whole of Ireland; dining with the smallest town in France not knowing a word of French and loving everyone immensely
