I've recently quit my full-time job to freelance and travel. I think I'm a closet extravert who just hasn't found herself yet. I'm shy and a little weird (and SUPER awkward) and looking to discover what makes me who I am. I'm just your quintessential anxious millennial who is trying to blow past the social media bullshit and define herself in reality.

I've watched Parks and Recreation at least 20x through.
Although I'm not strictly vegan, I've been exploring the lifestyle lately.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love getting an authentic experience. I'm a born and raised Minnesotan and even though I love this state, I love venturing out of it. I've always felt like I don't quite belong anywhere and I want to discover my place and my people.

I want to experience other ways of living.
