CURRENT MISSION

To meet unique people from all different parts of the world!

ABOUT ME

I've lived in Washington, DC for the last four years. Huge traveler, frequent concert-goer, fashion addict, dog lover, high altitude hiker, pop-culture junkie, bad indie film watcher, and themed party enthusiast.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest by always being on the go and taking advantage of every opportunity that comes your way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to host and/or meet up for coffee and show travelers around DC and learn about them and their culture during the process. I would also like to meet locals in other places I go and visit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have hosted various people who were all wonderful and have surfed myself in a variety of places.

Interests

Traveling and exploring new cultures(although that is obvious), decorating my apartment, thrift stores, flea markets, fashion, going to Broadway shows, reading, dancing, running, hiking, writing, any sort of thrill-seeking activity, listening to live music, and playing with my puppy Harley.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all sorts of movies. A few favorites: Life is Beautiful, Slumdog Millionaire, Crash, The Breakfast Club, Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind, The Shawshank Redemption, Up and Black Swan.

I love music to listen to and dance to. I listen to everything from Adele to Kid Cudi to Foster the People. Currently obsessed with Gramatik, Ellie Goulding, Of Monsters and Men, sbtrkt, Little Dragon, Yeasayer, Grizzly Bear, Florence + the Machine, and Walk the Moon.

I am an avid reader and try to read as often as possible. A few favorites: White Oleander, The Kite Runner, The Hunger Games series, Patti Smith's Just Kids, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Water for Elephants and Anthem.
