I think it's important to always remember where you came from. I never appreciated my Midwestern roots until I left home. The further I roam, the more I learn about other cultures and appreciate home just as much. Every new destination and experience shapes you into the person you become. I've been backpacking around Europe for a little over a month, and I'm looking for people to share that experience with and learn from. Seeing the world from another perspective is a blessing that too many people ignore. It's time to widen that perspective; to stop watching life pass by through a keyhole. I look forward to meeting new friends to join me on this grand adventure!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Eager to meet people from all over the world, listen to incredible stories, and make lifelong connections. I've been traveling around and staying in hostels, which has been absolutely incredible. It's a great way to meet people from all corners of the Earth. But what's lacking is the local presence. You tend to miss out on the very culture you're supposed to be immersed in. I'm looking to use this as a platform to fill that void.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

"Those who know do not speak. Those who speak do not know." To be honest, I prefer listening to talking. When you speak, you cannot learn. You're only regurgitating information you already know. I enjoy actively listening to stories and learning about the world around me. To me, in its essence, life is a collection of moments and memories. I aim to have those moments of impact and share my stories as I create some more along the way.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Open ears that will always be eager to listen and respond, my hands to help out around the place, my eyes to see the world from a different perspective, my mouth to share stories (and try different cuisines).
