Overview
About Me
Hey there!
I am the youngest of a family of 6 from rural Nebraska. My passions for travelling began at an early age. I personally did not leave the US until I was 16, but my older siblings, parents and extended family travelled the world extensively and always returned with the most beautiful and inspiring stories. Since the age of 16, I haved lived in and visited 28 countries. I desire to continue learning and understanding more about different peoples, cultures, and beliefs.
After university, I worked in Spain and the UK for 3 years. I was climbing the corporate ladder while taking advantage of some incredible opportunities offered to me. I then moved back to the US where I began developing rental properties. After several months of hard work, I finished my project and decided to treat myself by moving to Aspen, CO to work a ski season and dedicate myself fully to snowboarding. I have been out in Aspen for about 2 years now. I currently manage a French restaurant and I am preparing myself to finally depart for my world travels.
I will be moving to Australia and New Zealand for some time to take advantage of the Work Holiday Visa available. I desire to continue travelling the world until I find the place I simply can't leave...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I enjoy meeting new people and learning from them and hearing their stories. As I will depart for extensive travels soon, I hope to use Couchsurfing to stay with locals in the places I travel. I generally travel alone so I would love to meet others and share some adventures together. I love to have fun and learn. If you are down with a hike, going for a beer or a full on rager, yoga on the beach, or checking out a live performance, I will be down as well.
In the near future, I hope to host when I am established in Melbourne, AUS.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the greatest experiences in my life was runnning with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain. Nothing I've done was more exhilarating than awaiting the bulls with thousands of fellow adrenaline junkies fully decked out in the traditional white and red gear in the narrow streets of Pamplona. Being chased by massive death machines and finally breaking through into the stadium with 10,000+ fans cheering for you as if you were a gladiator of ancient greece. It was such an incredible experience, I had to do it 3 times!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share great stories and be an open ear. I am a handyman as well so depending on length of stay, I could help with home repairs or any random DIY projects.
