Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm an MBA student with a zeal for life and adventure. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories. I'm a 5'2" redhead, but what I lack in height I make up for in spunk and spirit. I've been told I'm outgoing, easy to talk to, and friendly to anyone I meet.
PHILOSOPHY
I am who I am only by the grace of Jesus, and I seek to love others in the same way He loves us.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have heard fantastic things about Couchsurfing from family and friends, and with my variety of traveling experience, I'm eager to try it out myself. While I'm not currently in a position to host, I looking forward to opening my home in the future.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have yet to experience Couchsurfing first-hand, but I have heard numerous stories from friends and family about their successful CS experiences, both hosting and surfing. I cannot wait to try it out for myself.
Interests
When I'm not studying or working, I enjoy exploring the places around me and traveling to new places. Whether it's blueberry picking in Arkansas or biking through Vienna, Austria, I like embracing the outdoors and finding hidden gems in a city. I enjoy cooking, watching baseball, playing piano, reading, and just learning new things about people and the world around me.

Music, Movies, and Books
I am by no means a music connoisseur, but I am open to most genres. I really enjoy television series because I feel like the characters are real people whose stories I get to follow. When I get the chance to read books other than textbooks, I enjoy memoirs and some fiction. Some of my current favorites are The Glass Castle, The Kite Runner, Hunger Games, and The Help.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the most incredible moments in my life was on the Northern Coast of Ireland. The North Antrim Coast of Northern Ireland includes the Giant's Causeway as well as fantastic coastal views and a hike along the coast. This was one of the most beautiful sights I've experienced in my short life.
Teach, Learn, Share
I took piano lessons for 12 years, and enjoy playing for leisure when I get the chance. I taught piano lessons for 3 years as well, and would love to pass on the gift of music to others.
I also can teach you how to say "Don't Touch the Gun" in Japanese. You never know when this may be useful.
