Hello! I'm looking to learnthe world and its people through responsible travel. Though I'm an introvert, I love talking to people, asking questions, hearing their stories and philosophies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

June 2019 - present
I decided I wanted to host because I had so many cool experiences co-habitating with people when I was traveling solo last year. Now that I have my own place, I want to share that with people. I love hosting, so I thought I'd put it to use and help out fellow travelers. I'm passionate about where I live - Indianapolis is awesome, and I love showing others a city that often gets overlooked.

August 2018 - October 2018
At the moment, I'm not here as a host. I'm traveling to Europe in September and the beginning of October (2018), and I'm looking to stay with people who are willing to have me. I want to stay with locals who are willing to show me the ropes on the best places to eat, things to see, and general things that reveal to me the character of the place you call home. If you'd like to join me in my travels, I would welcome that!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies:
- Waking Life
- Frances Ha
- Little Women
- Requiem for a Dream
- Good Will Hunting
- Blue Valentine
- Dead Poets Society
- Lord of the Rings trilogy
- Star Wars (except The Last Jedi; unpopular opinion - prequels make sequels better)

Music:
It stresses me out to answer questions about my favorite music because it honestly depends on the day. Please just check out my Spotify account. I know everyone says they listen to everything, but I am wide and deep in my tastes and it's easy to get me to like something new.

Books:
- The Heart is a Lonely Hunter
- Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
- Tuesdays With Morrie
- Series of Unfortunate Events
- Ender's Game
- Deadeye Dick
- Lexicon

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time, I gave a speech on the theory of relativity. I've also never had a nosebleed.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook! If you would allow me in your kitchen, I'd love to prepare a meal for you and whoever you live with as a token of my appreciation. I provide an open mind and a kind spirit. If you have instruments in your home, I'd like to play/learn with you!

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Belgium, Costa Rica, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, Trinidad and Tobago
