About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to make friends all across the world!

ABOUT ME

Originally from Michigan but feel like I have always belonged in Chicago where I live now. Music is an obsession (a healthy one none-the-less). I love taking chances, creating adventures, and experience things I never thought I would. I'm very interested in other cultures and am excited to learn anything that I can. I believe that you learn from making mistakes and putting yourself out there for all to see.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfed with a amazing guy in Sao Paulo, Brazil... it was the best first experience anyone could ask for. Also, met up with a few couchsurfers in Winter Park, CO while on a snowboarding trip. Just love it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had my first CouchSurfing experience this August in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Absolutely loved it and look forward to hosting others, as well as surfing again :)
