I'm a 22 year old traveler who, as of July 2016, will be living in Neiva, Colombia on a Fulbright Scholarship. I grew up in Louisville, KY in the USA, but I have also called Buenos Aires, Argentina home since I was 16.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently, I'm on couchsurfing so that I can find some temporary housing and amazing people in Mexico with my best friend, Jerome, who is featured in my last photo on my profile. We graduated college a few weeks ago and are on a month-long adventure through this beautiful country.

Overall, I'm on here because I love adventure, and the fact that people all over the world are willing to invite other adventure-seekers into their homes restores my faith in humanity.
