***Currently surfing, but next time I have a couch I would love to host/meet up with all ya'll! Thanks for making my time in NOLA wonderful ***

CURRENT MISSION

To experience all of this wild and wonderful world and the strange creatures that inhabit it.

ABOUT ME

I love late nights, early mornings, music drifting out of record stores, grilled cheese sandwiches on fancy bread, unexpected visits from friends, and many other things. I am insatiably curious, a lil bit brash, and always down for an adventure!
I am currently studying Social Justice, so I love talking about social issues and exploring life narratives. I love learning the in's and out's of what people are passionate about (whether it be astrology, physics, sharks, bartending or whatever else).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm really interested in meeting people who call places home. I want to see the real parts of life in cities I've never been to - the corner stores, the potholes, the friends and strangers...
I'm also overjoyed to offer new friends the same as I find a forever home (New Orleans is a beautiful, beautiful stop at the moment :)

Interests

The first few that come to mind are:

-a good conversation about nothing and everything
-watching movies
-a well thought-out doodle
-an unwell thought-out doodle.
-waking up to music
-long car rides and roadside attractions
-places where you can see all the stars at night
-trips to the grocery store
-sitting on curbs and drinking with friends

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working with unaccompanied minors from Central America during the influx in 2014.

What I Can Share with Hosts

An interesting conversation, loud laughter, and I can probably introduce you to a new combination of foods (peanuts and mac & cheese/chicken ramen and mangoes are some crowd favorites and by crowd I mean my mom. Still looking for more brave tongues)
