I'm 23 years old, from America but living in Zaragoza, Spain. I fell in love with traveling when I studied abroad in Granada, Spain during university. I love learning about new cultures and new people, do after I graduated from university, I decided to take a year to be an au pair in Spain and improve my Spanish. I'm open minded, adventurous, responsible, and looking to make new friends from all over the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that often times we are so closed off from other people and other cultures, especially in the United States because we are a pretty isolated country. I'm on here because I want a real authentic experience in the places I travel to. I want to learn about their culture. I want meet natives. I want to jump into something that is new me different to me, so that I can grow as a person.

Music, Movies, and Books

Harry Potter, Harry Potter, Harry Potter.... did I mention I like Harry Potter? Hahaha no, I really love all books- I've read since k was young and am such a book worm. I enjoy most movies. As for music, I also love just about anything. However, as I'm from Missouri, i listen to a lot of country music at home!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have walked part of the Camino de Santiago, been skydiving, run a marathon, and currently contemplating bungee jumping (if you have advice on where, let me know)!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my experiences, offer any guidance I can or suggestions on places I've been, cultural information about America, and hopefully, friendship!
