About Me

I was raised in Louisiana and went to school in Austin, Texas. I was in Europe for over two years getting my Masters in Tropical Ecology. This program was amazing and I got to study somewhere different each semester. During my studies, I lived in Brussels, Malaysia, Costa Rica, and lastly Florence, Italy. Clearly, I love to travel. I am also a beer enthusiast and am obsessed with trying new brews. I am very social and and love meeting people from all over the world. I've found couchsurfing to be such a beautiful thing, and I love to participate whenever I can!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After some time now, I have experienced absolutely beautiful things through couchsurfing. I've met amazing people and have had wonderful nights staying up late and getting to know each other. Couchsurfing is more than just finding a place to crash... it's an opportunity to become instance friends with a complete stranger! There's something special about people who open their homes to strangers :)

Interests

Nature foremost! I have a big passion for the tropics and for tropical forests. I love camping, hiking, and anything outdoors. I love beer, wine and good food, of course! I love cooking with friends. I love meeting new people and enjoying different cultures. I do yoga as well :) I also love live music and enjoying nightlife (I'm a bit of a party-er and find myself staying up late quite often).

Music, Movies, and Books

I like so much, it's hard to choose!
