About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying not to be such a dumb American

ABOUT ME

I'm a recent college graduate who's about to trek across Europe for a few weeks.

Pretty outgoing and very easy to get along with.

I'm tall, witty, and tend to have a dark sense of humor. Art, design, and performance are all things that really interest me, especially if it promises to show me something I haven't seen before.

I'm a graphic designer and web developer by trade. It's just something I fell into and have been enjoying ever since.

PHILOSOPHY

Few things worth doing are easy

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Back when I lived in Atlanta, I helped my roommate host several CouchSurfers in our apartment. I liked the idea of meeting complete strangers in unfamiliar towns, so I signed up for the project with the intention of seeing Europe.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My roommate and I have hosted several people. I enjoyed it - people stay just long enough to be interesting but not long enough to get annoying (just kidding - seriously it was a great experience).
