About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to visit all 7 continents by the time I'm 30 :)

ABOUT ME

A recent college graduate, I am moving on from the small state of Vermont and about to journey into the world outside of my comfort. I am a pretty easy going person and get annoyed when people complain about everything. I love good food, good drinks, and good company.

PHILOSOPHY

no regrets. learn from your mistakes and run with it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed with some friends and really liked it! excited to do some more!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Really amazing, again, would love to do it some more and meet new people!

Interests

Food and travel are the main two. I have re-realized my enjoyment of horseback riding and snorkeling from my current travels. I like drinking good drinks (microbrews, good wines, fancy cocktails), foraging/cooking/eating food with friends and family. Seeing live music is always awesome. But i also like staying in, playing cards or watching movies.

Music, Movies, and Books

I thoroughly enjoy trashy pop music, it's my weakness and fun to sing too. I like mostly all music, except country, but I like folk.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

India-Seeing the Himalayas at sunrise, the colors were mind blowing/spectacular.
Andros, Bahamas-Meeting the locals and learning about the largest and least populated island, also going to sand dollar island
Mongolia-Horseback riding in the national park!
Trans-Mongolian Rail- Train from Moscow to Beijing. Stopped in Lake Baikal and Ulaanbaatar and ended in Beijing. Met some really amazing people and ate some delish food and some wonderful and not wonderful memories
