CURRENT MISSION

Run as many marathons in Europe as is couch-potatoly possible!

ABOUT ME

I simply adore public transportation. I believe in fate and I rarely finish my beverage.

I just finished two years as a Peace Corps Volunteer. I miss interacting with people from different cultures and I find the English language a bit boring :)

other than that...I love playing sports and playing music.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in fate, but I also believe in Karma. I think we are sadly unaware of how much positive influence we can have on society.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've slept on many a couch-surfing couch and hosted a few people as well! Right now I live on a farm in South Dakota, but once I relocate to a metro area I will be more than happy to host you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In high school, I went to Taiwan for 2 weeks. In every town we visited, we stayed with host families. So while no one put me on a couch, I got to meet people for a few days and share pieces of language and culture. For the past two years I've been staying with people around Bulgaria, Macedonia, Austria and Italy. All of my couch-surfing vacations have been amazing.
