Hey! My name is Hannah and I am from Chicago, IL. I recently graduated from the University of Illinois and studied Finance and Entrepreneurship. Starting Summer '18 I will be moving to NYC to start a new job and hopefully will be able to host some surfers once I get settled.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and learning about new cultures. I have had the privilege of surfing with several hosts across Europe and always had amazing experiences. I found those trips to be the most fulfilling and I hope to return the favor to fellow surfers!

Interests

Music!! I love Rock, Alternative, Indie and many other types. I worked for a radio station as an intern under the music director and it was basically my dream job. I play a little guitar and ukulele too!

I enjoy the outdoors and anything adventurous. Hiking, canoeing and biking are right up my alley

Other random interests: Cooking, talking about nerdy things like Lord of the Rings and Star Wars, watching movies, learning new things, eating all the food, trying different kinds of drinks, listening to people talk about their passions.
