Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see the world!
ABOUT ME
I love to travel. I grew up doing it and I never plan on stopping. I absolutely love seeing new places, meeting new people, and experiencing new things. I would say I'm still pretty green in my travel experience...I've never been outside of the US, but there's plenty to see in this country before I go tackle the rest of the globe :) I love hiking and mountain climbing so my ultimate goal is to summit as many peaks on all seven continents as I can!
Currently I live in Austin, Texas...one of the most amazing cities I've been in yet,but I'm about to move back to Durango,CO to get my bachelors in environmental biology. I absolutely love working with food,and my ultimate goal is to join the peace corps and work on sustainable agriculture and environmentally safe farming projects.
PHILOSOPHY
This pretty much sums it up...
If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business, because we'd be too cynical. Well, that's nonsense. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down.-annie dillard
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Just moved to Durango,CO hopefully I'll have a couch soon.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
So far I surfed up the West Coast crashing on a few couches. I was so amazed at how readily people opened their homes to travellers they hardly new, love that! The people I've met so far are so wonderful.
