Hello all of you beautiful humans! My name is Emily Perkins and I am 26 years old. I'm super laid back and I work for a company called Recycle-A-Textbook which I LOVE because it allows me to travel and meet new people as well as help college students save money on books. I visit college campuses all over and pay for students and professors used books to be resold at lower costs than bookstores to help save students money. I enjoy going out and surrounding myself with positive people and learning new things! :) Instagram: emperks

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I travel so much to different campuses for my job, it can be difficult to pay for hotels every night along the way each week while also covering bills... Couch surfing has allowed me to save money on travel expenses as well as meet awesome, new people! I love having the opportunity to travel and make memories with the people I meet along the way!

Interests

I love to dance, sing, act, travel, drink, meet new people and take risks! Fall down 7 times, stand up 8 :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I studied abroad in Amsterdam for 5 1/2 months while in college. It was one of the most AMAZING experiences of my life :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to sing, but I would love how to learn guitar and keyboard!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can pay you cash for any books you're not using whether new or old, annotated or instructor edition- I can even buy books all the way back to the 60s! All books will go to good homes to help save people money :)
