I am passionate about traveling and love to meet new people from all cultures. I am brand new to the Couchsurfing scene, I have always been interested in trying it out and now I have a place that I can host people!

I grew up in a small town in Minnesota, went to school in LA with the hopes of meeting a wide variety of people. There I had the chance to live in Shanghai for a summer, study in Budapest and travel to a number of other countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Some of my favorite moments from my various traveling experiences have been the interesting conversations that I have had with people that have opened me up to viewing something from a completely different perspective. I love meeting new people and having those unique, only-happens-once experiences.

I have also enjoyed seeing a new city/country/culture through the guidance of a local. I hope I can share the fun and beauty of Minnesota with any guests who come this way.

Interests

I enjoy playing pretty much every sport, especially volleyball and basketball; going to concerts; reading books; hanging out with close friends; meeting new friends; having deep conversations; day drinking; and dancing.
