I am a 24 year old designer from the lovely land of 10,000 lakes better known as Minnesota (USA). I grew up in a tiny farming town population less than 3,000 and I am the oldest in a large family. I am very excited to travel the world and learn about the culture. My dream would be to pay off all my college debts, quit my job and travel the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend who has been surfing and hosting throughout the world told me about this site and the amazing people she has met. I want to meet genuine people and have a local experience when I travel.

Interests

I enjoy reading, long walks/jogs around the lakes in the summer, rollerblading, mountain biking, snowboarding, swimming, boating, camping, concerts and so much more.

Music, Movies, and Books

Action and Romance movies get me all the time... I wish I made more time to read books - I used to be such a book worm growing up

I like all kinds of music, whats on my playlist depends on the mood I'm in. Could be Bob Marley one day and Avenged Sevenfold the next... or even Garth Brooks, or Justin Timberlake, or Taylor Swift... the list goes on

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Tough Mudder (10 mile military style obstacle course with barbed wire crawls, ice bath, and electric shocks to name a few)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English, some cooking (have you ever had a Grilled Cheese Sandwich?), I can also share stories about growing up in a small farming town - my first job was in a corn field... seriously

What I Can Share with Hosts

a laugh, stories, conversation what more can you ask for :)
