I'm an outgoing 24 year old female who enjoys travel, triathlon, and trying new things. I swam competitively in college and am currently pursuing a Masters in Landscape Architecture and training for my Half Iron Distance triathlon in the Fall. Besides these two shorter term goals, I have a long term goal of seeing as much of the world as possible while I'm here and meeting new friends of all nationalities whenever I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm all for the sharing economy.
