About Me

I am a wanderer! I like to move cities every few years and get to know a new corner of the world. I have been intrigued with learning languages since I took my first Spanish class... Or even before! I am starting to learn a new type of language full-time soon; computer languages! I will be in downtown Chicago and in need a place to stay for the duration of my intensive classes, and am happy to talk about trades ( website building - related, perhaps? Language tutoring?)

I love Yoga, but hardly practice anymore. I play lots of vball, and am currently trying to grow my vertical jump to over 2 inches :)
I don't have any dogs, but always love it when I can stay with one!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I thrive when I surround myself with new people from new cultures around me all the time. I was outside of the states for so long that I frequently feel like the States are a foreign country to live in and experience. I get along with open- minded people who love travel as much as me. I am hoping to meet even more incredible people when I have my own place to host!
