CURRENT MISSION

Walk slowly, drink lots of water.

ABOUT ME

I'm Jenn. I'm currently schooling and settled after going on lots of adventures over the oceans.

I lived in America for a while with a bunch of hippies in a co-op. Now I live alone and would very much like to meet travellers who I can live vicariously through.

I'm looking for adventures! And people who like nature, dumpsters, hummous, watching light shows, listening to Scandinavian music and hopefully some silliness.

This summer has big plans for me! I'm going to WWOOF and cycle my way around Holland before heading to Hungary and where ever the road may take me.

PHILOSOPHY

I like 'Walk slowly and drink lots of water' I definitely walk slowly but I should work on hydration. 'Look up' is also a good one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to surf and I like to host. Right now I can't host and I'm not surfing. But I want to be doing both.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing in Iceland is just as important as eating the national dishes. 5 different couches in a week. Exhausting but incredible. So, so incredible! Feminists in Brussels, gay fashionistas in Amsterdam. Nothing but positivity so far! I can't wait to host people and become a knowledge buff about the place I'm in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Some crazy trip with a family of Icelanders who took us to a deserted beach in heavy fog whilst we stood in a trailer. We met beached whales and played in the ocean. It was all very romantic and dream-like.
