My name is Danielle and I am 21 years old. I'm studying abroad this semester and it is my goal to experience life. And what's the best way to do that? Travel the world! I come from Ohio, USA and am studying business at Radboud University, the Netherlands. I am a very outgoing person and love to meet new people. I first decided to do Couchsurfing because my friend told me what an amazing experience it was for her.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing seems like a very rewarding housing option and I can appreciate the connection that both the guest and the host can experience by sharing one's home.

Centres d'intérêt

You know, I really love to do everything. I'm adventurous, outgoing, and a very happy person! I love to play volleyball and basketball, go hiking and camping, play piano, ski and snowboard, running- I try to every day, participate in triathlons, volunteer, travel and gain new experiences, kayak, do yoga, and paint. Also, I like doing crazy things and going on awesome adventures!

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Currently, Van Morrison and the Black Keys. I also listen to the Beatles (obviously who doesn't), Sublime, White Stripes, Neil Young, Lynyrd Skinner, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Red Hot Chilli Peppers.. the list goes on. I love chick flicks so anything funny and romantic -_- haha no judgments please! And I really enjoyed the books Freakanomics and All The Devils Are Here: Unmasking the Men Who Bankrupted the World.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I won the 2012 Servant Leader Video Scholarship worth $40,000. I guess you could say I love to give back! I also climbed to the most dangerous point of Monserrat in Barcelona, Spain :D

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

"You know, if you give a man a fish- you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for life." I'm not sure what I could teach people, I guess it depends on what the person is interested in learning.
