About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To love the world

ABOUT ME

I am currently studying theology for a my Masters of Divinity, although I also hope to begin a masters program in Human Rights. I am very interested in open conversations with people from all different backgrounds and finding ways to peacefully to live together on this amazing planet. I love traveling, meeting new people, and learning as much as I can. I am young and idealistic, but I think that is a good thing. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Love the world

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hung out with a great group of Couchsurfers while living in Osijek, Croatia. I also had the chance to surf myself on trips to Hungary. I have hosted a few people now, which has been really fun.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have loved meeting new people through Couchsurfing! After moving to Eastern Europe by myself to volunteer, I have having trouble meeting new people and found Couchsurfing a great way to meet awesome new people, even though I was not surfing or hosting. These people became some of my closest friends while there.
