About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world

ABOUT ME

I am a graphic design student, currently spending a semester abroad in Spain. I am originally from a very small town in Arizona, but Denver, Colorado is my home.
I am new to traveling far from home, but I love it. I want to see as much of the world as possible. So far my best experiences have been with the locals, enjoying their culture. I have also had great times with other exchange students from around the world. It is amazing to share a meal with people from 8 different countries and learn about each others cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life.
Do whatever you want to do to make yourself happy.
Its not about the destination, Its about the journey.
And Life goes on.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently looking for places to surf in Spain. I want to do this because I thin it is a more interesting way to experience the country and the culture than staying a hotel and being a tourist.
When I get back home I will definitely be open to hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is a new experience for me, but I am excited about it. I had friends in Denver who did this, and through them I met many very exciting new people.
