Hi, I'm Julia! I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the University of Colorado. I graduated this past May (2015), but instead of finding a grown-up job like many of my friends, I want to travel and see as much of the world as I can!

My friend and I just finished (end of Sept. 2015) traveling South America, and I am traveling to Southeast Asia in October. I am excited about my travel plans and I can't wait to meet new friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet local people who can show me around their town and I want to learn firsthand about the culture and customs of wherever it is that I am traveling.
