Hi! I'm Emma. I recently graduated from the University of Washington (go Dawgs) and I'm currently living in Portland trying to get ready for grad school. I love the Pacific Northwest, Saturday Night Live, a good apple pie, exploring, and learning about new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's awesome to build a community of travelers and look out for one another. I also appreciate getting local perspectives on the places I go, and this is just a cool thing.

Interests

I love traveling, movies, sports, being outside, reading... A lot of things, really.

• traveling
• music
• live music
• sports
• watching movies
• reading books

Music, Movies, and Books

I love movies (besides horror) and I love music (besides country). I'm getting back into reading for fun after having to read mostly scientific articles in school. Most recently was East of Eden, which I enjoyed more than I expected considering I didn't think I liked Steinbeck.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just went scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef, which I'm stoked about.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can do my best to teach you how to do a cartwheel.

What I Can Share with Hosts
