Just a quick bit about me:
I just graduated from college with a BA in Art & Design and a BS in Biology. I also graduated with minors in Psychology and Japanese.
My biggest passions include traveling, trying local cuisine, tasting coffee, painting and improvisational theater.
I work to support myself as an artist professionally and to travel.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Because Couchsurfing is unlike anything else I have ever experienced. It is one of the most beautiful things in this world, and allows travelers not to "just find cheap housing," it allows us as a community to share our experiences with each other and pretty literally put us in each others shoes. It allows us to discover the true essence of the city we're staying in, not the mass marketed tourist traps that hotels and resorts are often built. Finally it allows us to form life long friendships with our hosts and other travelers.

Centres d'intérêt

Everything about this beautiful world interests me, I am so fascinated by how little I really know and every single I find so much enjoyment it trying to soak up everything I can. I enjoy the little things, the big things and everything in between, from the detail in a flower petal to a grand meal with friends. My favorite thing to do is talk to people about what they are most passionate about and learn as much as I can.

My favorite things to do while traveling are visiting local coffee shops, walking through parks or around cities, shopping at local boutiques, eating food at farmers markets and just experiencing life in the present moment. I am influenced a lot by Eastern religions including primarily Buddhism.

I also love playing soccer, bocce ball, and really any other game.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I love to listen to/watch/read pretty much everything, I love when people express themselves creatively and share their unique perspectives of the world.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I published a children's book when I was 15.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

All I want is to soak up as many experiences as I can and just live life to its fullest potential.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I can share my 23 years of life experience and adventure, but more importantly I will be sharing a willingness to learn about your life and your experiences.
Plus I'm also a pretty good cook, so I would love to help cook a meal.
