CURRENT MISSION

Move Mountains!

ABOUT ME

I love to try new things and I'm always up for anything. I love adventures, doing things I've never done before, meeting people, creating awkward moments and trying different foods (especially vegan and raw dishes). I'm studying at an alternative business school in Amsterdam called Knowmads so I'm in Europe for at least a year!

PHILOSOPHY

everything happens for a reason and I choose to see the optimistic side of it all

LOVE

I'm through accepting limits 'cause someone says they're so, something I cannot change but 'till I try I'll never know" -from Wicked

Seriously, anything is possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed a few couches while traveling throughout Europe. Now that I'm living in Europe, I want to meet people completely different than me (and sprinkle in some like-minded ones) in an area I just moved to. I'm up for drinks, exploring Amsterdam, food, sports, jogging around a'dam, frisbee, biking, whatever!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in Paris, Alicante, Barcelona, Madrid, and Rome and loved every minute of it. Met so many wonderful people and experienced how the locals really live.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to Europe for a year without knowing how to pay for it and in 2 weeks figured it out

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach people how to play basketball (15+ yrs so I sure hope I can). I'm a pretty good cook/baker and love to try different recipes. The Food network was my favorite channel back when I had cable. Really want to learn how to surf and become fluent in a 2nd language (Dutch possibly?). Also want to learn about every religion. Also pretty good at fitness and love to create workouts (getting my personal training and pilates certifications!).
