About Me

Current graduate student grad and unstoppable lover of traveling. I'm from the Midwest of the United States, but I have a love for places I've never been and people I've never met. This is my first experience using Couchsurfers, and I am looking forward to the experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling and find the best way to see a city is to ask the locals!

Teach, Learn, Share
