About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to make the entire world my home. I crave adventure adn the thrill of experiencing new things.

I have a working holiday visa in New Zealand and am planning on working at one of the ski resorts this winter. I don't have a set plan, I like to fly by the seat of my pants.

ABOUT ME

I have graduated college and now it is time for some SERIOUS education 😁. I'm passionate about environmental conservation. My hope is to one day combine this passion with my obsession of travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be honest. I'm doing this because it is much cheaper than hostels and I want to stretch my money as far as possible. And this way I get to talk with an individual and learn more about them and the local culture. The people I get to stay with normally know so much about a place and I learn infinitely more from them than I do from tourist information. I get to learn what's its like to live in a place. I hope to one day have a place of my own that I can host people!

Interests

I love to ski in the winter time. In the summer I love to swim in the river that flows through my town and go hiking, camping and backpacking in the mountains. My friends and I love to go to music festivals. Dancing to live music is such a great way to meet new people. I like almost all kinds of music and I love food!! Pretty much all kinds of food interest me. I have a big, loud family and I like to be around people who enjoy life with a bang. Adventuring is my art medium. I may not be the most talkative person but I do enjoy personal one-on-one conversations so that I can have a truly deep interaction with another person. I don't really like to go out and party but I do enjoy a few drinks at home.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite band is Led Zeppelin. I have always loved the Harry Potter series and I love horror writers, such as H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King. I love all movies and Quentin Tarantino and Richard Linklater make some of my favorites.
