About Me

I'm a 21 yr old student at Texas A&M University studying Ocean Engineering. I'm very open, active, and adventurous. I love being outside whether it's running, working out, at the beach, or just walking around a city. Not afraid to try new things. Not the touristy type at all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Other than being a broke college student with loads of student loans, I want to meet locals who can show me what it's really like living in different places rather than a travel brochure from a hotel. I love meeting new people and what better way than to share a home

Interests

I'd travel the rest of my life if I could. Being outside doing absolutely anything. Food! Trying new things and learning to cook new things. Food. I love music as I play guitar myself.
Anything adventurous.
Art geek when I'm not being an engineer.

Music, Movies, and Books

Been reading a lot of Hemingway lately. I'm a fan of the classics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba diving with sharks was pretty cool. Saved a guy from drowning once. Running of of the Bulls.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can play guitar, cook a lot of American foods, can build pretty much anything.
I love learning. Not anything in particular. Basket weaving? I'm down. Accordion playing? Count me in.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to help out in anyway I can! Even if you say no I'll probably help anyway.
