CURRENT MISSION

to feel like I am an integral part of this world, not an observer. to travel, explore, and learn how to make this happen.

ABOUT ME

I am 23, female, dedicated to exploration and social justice. I grew up in Baltimore and moved out to Colorado after graduating college. I never thought I'd be doing yoga, but it turns out it's pretty great.

I am a theater director and have been working with an ensemble in Colorado for the past nine months, but decided to take a break and travel for the summer.

I love good food and I am an amazing cook. I do like to drink and occasionally party. I love being outdoors (hiking and biking!) most of all.

PHILOSOPHY

Grow my own food and make everything by hand.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a great host - come stay with me and I will show you around Fort Collins, take you hiking, give you tips on which local beers to try . . . or, if you really just need a place to crash, let you in and leave you alone. I am looking to surf in several European cities this May, and I hope to have a good time there.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to the website, though not to the concept. I signed up in anticipation of a solo Europe trip this May, and am excited to host people here in Fort Collins as well. With friends and friends-of-friends, I love being an active host, providing a fun FoCo experience. I know from experience, though, that sometimes travelers just want a warm place to sleep and to explore on their own. I'm down with that too!
