Oh hey there!

We're Brigid and Brie- the most fun, open-hearted, generous souls we've ever been. Our passion is with people and our natural warmth and enthusiasm for life makes everyone feel welcome in our presence! We're known for our wild stories, spontaneity, and goofy spirits. Each of us are skilled in many different areas, and most importantly: we love to learn! We've been best friends for three years and have found a love for traveling, exploring, and always being willing to take on a new skill. Our goals for this trip are to meet lots of new people, grow in our understanding of other cultures, and try everything we can!

I (Brie) am a theatre artist from St. Louis, Missouri in the United States! I'm a high energy, happy-go-lucky, rose colored glasses type of gal with a zest for life and learning new things! My favorite quote is "A stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet!" and I live by that everyday. I have lots of experience working in customer service, childcare, social media, event planning, hosting, construction, cooking and farm work.

I (Brigid) am first and foremost a lover. I studied psychology in college and have continued my studies post-graduation. I am currently working as a Behavioral Therapist with the Autistic community. I have loads of experience with children, customer service, hosting and planning events, social media, photography, coaching, crafting, and the food service industry. We would be great assets to any host because of our interpersonal skills, understanding of children, our backgrounds in art, and our agility and willingness to work in or outside on multifaceted projects! We are looking so forward to getting to experience and pour love and time into an incredible host opportunity!

Since we were young, we were known as the two most social people in our classes. We are kind and generous friends with a dedication to ensuring everyone around us feels safe and included. We love animals and we never shy away from a good challenge!

*count us in for karaoke anytime!
*we are great listeners and will ensure you always feel safe and understood in conversations
*we love to laugh and are shameless in our natural goofy spirits

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
