Hi, I’m Kat! (Kat Conn on Facebook!)

I'm a recent college grad, traveling music festival photographer, and currently work for the National Park Service. I'm a fan of flannels, analog cameras, record players, backpacking, camping, and just being outside as much as I can!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

The first thing I associate with traveling is meeting new people. Being able to spend time with someone who knows the area, has lived there for their whole life or just wants to share their story with passing travelers is awesome! Learning about a culture first hand from individuals who live in it everyday is where the best suggestions for sight seeing and good eats come from.

I've surfed through Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, and the United States with great hosts who I am so grateful to have met and explored with. My trips wouldn't have been the same without CS and the beautiful connections it allows you to make with people who feel the same about traveling, meeting people, and having truly awesome experiences.

Intereses

I’m a photographer, writer, lover of travel and passionate about learning/experience new things! I’m very interested in exploring new areas of the globe and documenting the beauty of a different culture.
