I have the travel bug... Really bad! I was born in America but I've been on the go for about 6 years now and I don't think my travel days will be over in any near future! Somehow I manage to juggle moving around the world, completing grad school (on my 4th degree), and meeting interesting people every day. People question how I fit it all in, but these are the things that keep me going.

I'm currently in Chicago finishing my Doctorate. Squeezing in trips here and there as much as possible!

I love meeting fellow adventurers, sharing stories, & creating new memories!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet locals and other travelers to have a phenomenal time (exploring or partying) as I continue my travels :)

I find the best way to explore new places is to just see where the day takes you. But when you're with a local, they have hidden gems already discovered. What better way to enjoy your time than with someone who enjoys this city so much that they choose to live here?! I enjoy CSing for reasons like this. We can enjoy your favorite hot spots or find new hidden gems together! Either way, there's an entire world yet to be seen and I'm open to discovering bits and pieces of it, one bar, beach, city, waterfall, or jungle at a time!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There's loads of things I find exciting, so I suppose it's hard to choose only one. However, if you want to grab a beer or a pot of tea, we can reminisce about all of the amazing things we've encountered. It's always surprising to uncover the amount of similar interests or experiences people share.
