I'm a recent college grad who's trying to figure out what to do with my life. I've been living since graduation with in Seattle and have been working at Starbucks for about a year now.

A couple years ago, I finished school at Eckerd College in St. Pete, FL, after studying political science and literature, and have been thinking of going back to school to study teaching, but who knows. I've been considering moving out of Seattle, so I'm traveling around a bit to see what's up elsewhere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to get affordable lodging when I travel, and to meet people wherever I'm going.
