MOST IMPORTANT: I am NOT interested in using CS for dating or sexual purposes. I just want to make new FRIENDS.
I love meeting people and learning about new cultures, as well as languages. I love traveling because of all of that, as well as food! I love helping people and making people gifts and being the one to host things. I'm not much of a cook, I'm really slow to get jokes, and my friends are my life. I love working out at the gym and running, but am not much of a hiker. I'm a nondenominational Christian and love trying out new churches when I travel, specifically those with live bands. I love the beach and the mountains, and nature amazes me. I love thunderstorms as long as I'm not outside in the middle of it. I love music and I want to learn the guitar. Romantic comedies, comedies in general, and kids' movies are my kind of thing. I love Winnie the Pooh stuff but not the show. I'm obsessed with minions and princesses. I love celebrating things!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

NOT FOR DATING OR SEX.
I've always stayed in hostels, hotels, airbnbs, with friends and family, etc., and I want to try couchsurfing! I think it sounds so cool to just open up your home to some random people that are excited to learn about your city and community and regional culture, and if I had an extra bedroom or a big enough couch, I would 100% be a host.

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I coordinated, planned, and executed the first Relay For Life of my high school and raised $15,000 for cancer research for the American Cancer Society.

Teach, Learn, Share

Most people think Colombia is super sketchy and dangerous, and they wouldn't be caught dead going there. I went to the country's capital in January 2016, and I've never felt safer in a city.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook like two really good meals. Well, maybe a few more than that. I make some bomb meatloaf, and this chicken and rice dish that my host mom in Argentina taught me while I lived with her. AND I make suuuper good pancakes. And I don't even like pancakes, so that says something.
