About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a friendly person who loves to meet new people and experience new cultures. While I can be a little shy at first I'm quick to warm to people and love swapping stories over a coffee or beer. I grew up in a pretty small town and didn't get to travel a whole lot when I was younger but last year I received a scholarship to study in Spain and now that I'm in Europe I've got the travel bug. I want to see the world and make lots of new friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to make new friends and see new places. Not only is it a great way to travel on a student's budget, you also get to meet locals and really get a good feel for a new place.

Interests

In my free time I love to go hiking , sailing, swimming.. Pretty much anything outdoors. Since I've been in Spain I've started to really enjoy cooking too. I like to read and practice speaking Spanish whenever I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

To name a few of my favorite bands I love Ben Howard, Death Cab for Cutie, Hozier, Alt-J and Fleet Foxes. For books I really enjoyed reading the Monkey Wrench Gang and the Hobbit. One of my favorite movies is Wild.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Packed my bags and moved to Spain for nine months!
