I am a full time graduate student at Drake University, studying Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I also work full time as an HIV Case Manager. I spent six month abroad, mostly in Germany, but managed to travel all around Europe. I had very positive experiences with couch surfing while over there and met some fabulous hosts! I am not hosting people right now, but hope that one day I will be able to do so again. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because I will be studying abroad in Germany from September 2-December 27(ish) and I will be looking to learn more and meet new people! Hopefully I will have positive experiences that will lead me to want to host others in the future in America. This will be my first time ever leaving the United States and definitely my first time doing anything like this! I am excited to meet new people and learn more about other cultures.
