I am an 18-year-old student, who is going on to study botany and library sciences. I love learning in every sense of the word, from reading to people, I want to know it all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am taking a gap year between my high school and college education. I have always wanted to travel and a gap year has been on the agenda since elementary school. Couchsurfing will give me a chance to do this low budget and to meet new people in new places.

My top movies are Across the Universe, Castle in the Sky, The Commitments, Song Street, and Amelie.
My top books/series would have to be The Bone Dolls Twin, The Handmaids Tale, Jane Eyre, Atonement and the Narnia series. I read everything from nonfiction to fantasy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For my friend's sixteenth birthday we went skydiving in Canada. It was absolutely amazing. I have always been afraid of heights, but this was nothing like I'd imagined. It was adrenaline and flying and I can't wait to experience it again.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share an interest in learning about new places, and a willing ear to listen. I would be interested in being taken to new places or maybe some of the host's favorite places.
