About Me

I served in the Peace Corps as a volunteer in Zambia for the past 2.5 years and just finished traveling throughout Europe. Now that I am back in the states, I am just enjoying my life to the fullest and still trying to see the world as much as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Living in Zambia for two years and learning how to be more independent has made me realize how much I would love to see more of the world. I would love to meet new people and just learn more about the different cultures present in the world. Even back in the US, I want to travel to other states and see how big of a nation we are. So far I have been hosted by great couchsurfing hosts and I cannot wait to return the favor and host other couchsurfers when I get my own place!

Interests

Dancing, singing, trying to pick up new languages, meeting new people, and just having fun!

Music, Movies, and Books

I admit I keep up with the Top 40 hits occasionally but I have been trying to expand my taste in music. There are so many great artists and genres out there!

I am open to watching any movie and reading any book that are recommended to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving in Namibia!
Ziplining in Costa Rica!
Getting kicked by a zebra and survived to live the tale!

Teach, Learn, Share

Through my experiences in Zambia and my travels in Europe, I have become interested in seeing more of the world, to meet new people and learn about their cultures. Through my travels, I am hoping to build new relationships and learn about different cultures as well as sharing my experiences as I continue on my journey in discovering more of the world.
