CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of Germany and Europe as I possibly can within the span of a year!

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty laid back and open-minded person who loves sharing ideas over a good beer. Free time activities include bouldering, contra dancing, and tea drinking.I love cooking, especially spicy food, and typically offer up meals to my host (at their spice level preference :) ). Like most Couchsurfers, I like to get to know a different side of the city I'm visiting, so any and all suggestions are gladly accepted!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted several couch surfer back home in Asheville and each experience was extremely positive! Most people chose to stay longer and my housemates and I were more than happy to hang out for a few extra days. I also had an amazing time couchsurfing in Europe while studying abroad.

Interests

Like I said above, eating spicy food, hiking, biking, cooking, reading, contra dancing (although any type of dancing will suffice), photography.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Parasailing in Austria
-Contra dancing in a room of 200+ people
-Camping out in the Zagora desert in Morocco. I've never seen so many
stars at once.
-Seeing monkeys in the wild. Kind of cliche, but seeing animals in their natural habitat is fascinating.
-Going to a jazz show at Edelweiß in Berlin. Being in a room packed full of people who love music while listening to some amazing jazz improv leaves an impression.
