I'm an American (Ohio-Virginia-LA) girl and just finished a year of living in Madrid, teaching English and hopping around Europe like crazy.

I blog over at www.travelingbanana.com if you want to see some of my travels! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to go new places and I like to meet people so this seemed like a good idea :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm more constantly amazed by the world around me than by anything I've done.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm supposed to teach English all day but end up learning more from my students about all kinds of things!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a friendly, happy person always looking to meet and learn from new people. I'm a good listener and a good beer-buyer!
