CURRENT MISSION

to have an exciting and beautiful month exploring Europe!

ABOUT ME

Hmm I'm definately outgoing and friendly but can be shy at times...I just like to laugh, relax, and enjoy good conversation, music, food, and wine. I love being outside too...biking and hiking are two of my favorite things to do.

I am from Minnesota in the United States, but I'm studying abroad in Ireland until the end of May.

PHILOSOPHY

Connecting with others and close relationships are really what is most important in life. Friends and family are everything(well almost)...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My roomate Alix and I hosted a couple from New York for a night. It was a lot of fun, and a great first time hosting experience for us.
I have never stayed with anyone before via CouchSurfing, but Alix and I are really excited to do it during our spring break (March 22nd - April 17th). We are traveling to various places in Italy, Spain, France, as well as Prague and Amsterdam. I have never been anywhere in Europe besides Ireland so this is very exciting for me! Alix and I are both clean, respectful, open-minded and non-smokers. We love to have a good time and meet new people, so it would be brilliant if you let us stay with you!!!
