Lifelong traveler and lover of people! I'm from Montana, USA but have moved around a ton. I love traveling and experiencing new places, I've lived all over the place and have had many different jobs, everything from bartending to working in politics at our state capitol. I'm a digital artist and run an e-commerce store with my designs, my art Instagram is @designgardenart if you're curious :) I also am an avid petsitter, I'm obsessed with dogs haha.

I'm currently traveling around Europe with my husband, mainly France but also Switzerland, Spain, and maybe Portugal. We're here partially for his work and partially just to travel around with a very loose schedule. We've spent a lot of time in Europe previously (we both lived in Spain for a couple of years) and it's so good to be back.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, exchange culture, and share new ideas. To get to know places on a local level and connect in a different way. To make friends!

Music, Movies, and Books

The Waking Life, Loving Vincent. Lots of comedies and lots of musicals lol. My favorite TV show is the Office (US).

I love music and never rule out a genre, my taste in tunes is a little eclectic haha. I generally listen to rock, hip-hop, folk, R&B, alternative, pop, and musicals. Everything, really. I make music as well – I play guitar, sing, and play piano (although I haven't played piano in a while, it's not exactly a travel-friendly instrument).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched the sunrise in the Sahara, and watched the sunset in Santorini. Jumped out of an airplane in Puerto Vallarta (with my CS host!!). Went to the lantern festival in Chiang Mai. Snorkeled on the Great Barrier Reef. Went to the top of the Empire State Building. Hiked to frozen waterfalls in Croatia and hidden glacial lakes in my home in Montana.
