CURRENT MISSION

To be a happy and healthy adult. Sounds simple, right?

ABOUT ME

I'm Jenna. I am in my late twenties, I hate the term millennial and I am currently attempting to form into a fully-functioning adult. I love theater. I love music, I love friends, I love coffee, I love long conversations and the occasional cigarette. (I also rock at lists.)

I know way too much about film and will often surprise others with random trivia.

Not-so-recently, I graduated college and uprooted myself from my comfort beach bubble of Wilmington, NC to explore this magnificent country. After zig-zagging through the Northeast and Midwest, I landed somewhat unexpectedly in the great state of Colorado where I worked seasonal jobs as I continued to take week long vacations to explore the deserts, mountains and coasts

Then I moved to New Jersey to pursue some silly little dream I had of being involved in non-profit theater. Ta-Da! Two internships and one job later, it would seem that the ever-challenging, gorgeous city of New York has put her claws in me. I have been here for over a year and currently have no intention of leaving. Although, every now and again...

PHILOSOPHY

"It's your life. You can decorate it as you like."

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couchsurfed several times while traveling abroad in Europe and hosted while living in North Carolina. Right now I live with three other roommates so hosting isn't always an option-but I'm ready to rejoin this wonderful community!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed with several people in Germany, France and Belgium, and greatly enjoyed their company.

I had several guests in Wilmington, and had a blast showing them around.
