About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel everywhere I can, experience new things, and meet great people.

ABOUT ME

During the Fall of 2008, I lived in a school-owned castle in the Netherlands for 3 months, traveling all over Europe and forming close friendships. It changed my life, and I'm always looking for more experiences like that.

PHILOSOPHY

Live for the moment. Laugh as much as you can. Find people who make you happy, and hold onto them. Be open minded and learn from everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've couchsurfed with a couple people in Europe and the U.S. and always had great experiences. I love looking for fun, friendly people to meet when I travel new places. I don't want to just be a tourist, I want to get the full experience of living in a particular city and country.

I'm not really in a position to host anyone at the moment, but send me a message and I'm happy to at least meet up and give you ideas of where to go around Boston! :) It's a great city (though I recommend avoiding the winter).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love the people I've met so far through couchsurfing. I was able to fully experience the cities I visited with their guidance and friendliness, and learn about different cultures firsthand.

Interests

I appreciate the simple things.. having fun and hanging out with good people. I'm not an adrenaline junkie but I enjoy exploring, going to shows, and trying new things.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music (especially live) - mix of pop/edm and country, and dancing, and singing when no one is listening (mostly).
My favorite movies are comedies like Knocked Up, 10 Things I Hate About You, etc. I enjoy a good romance or action or mystery as well.
For books I read mostly fantasy - similar to The Hunger Games though I could name a million lesser known books that are way better.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing things I've done/seen in my life happened while studying abroad in Europe. Croatia (Dubrovnik) and the Cinque Terre, Italy were probably the most amazing surprises because I had no expectations or prior knowledge. I want to discover more hidden treasures in the world.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bahamas, Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, United Kingdom, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Netherlands, United States
