CURRENT MISSION
I want to go on a minimum of two trips a year. I plan on doing one nation trip and one international trip annually. So far I have California and Europe planned as well. I have gone on my national trip for this year yet, I'm open to suggestions!

ABOUT ME

I recently turned 22! I am a prospective nursing student that has a passion for travel. When I get settled in my profession I don't plan on staying in one place for long. The gift of the medical field is that there is always a need for work everywhere and anywhere.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is to just work enough to live at your comfort. Work hard enough to be able to do whatever makes you happy. For me, that is travel, grow, learn, try to be healthy in all aspects of my life. So to accomplish this I will work, Not Overwork, (that's not a life to live because you can't enjoy it) but work hard enough to accomplish what is my goal at the moment. That is my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've gone to a huge game of city tag in Chicago that was advertised to me by the couch surfing network. I met a couple couch surfers there but I was 18 at the time. Although the dream was there and real, I felt I was too young to travel without my parents. Being that I've already traveled the country on my own at 21, I can now engage more in my couch surfing community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have yet to create my first couch surfing experience.

Interests

Music!! All genres. I don't know everything but I know enough to call my own. What's amazing about music is that it travels with you with age, grows with your mind and emotions.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know I would love to learn how to speak another language other than English and Spanish. As far as teaching, I can teach Spanish to those who don't know much. I can also share my personal book collection to those who love to read as much as I do!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my experiences and love! If they would need a place to stay and the bond is close enough, I would welcome them into my home regardless of the circumstances.
