I'm a small town girl from Portland, Maine. I enjoy my job in healthcare policy, but I love escaping on the weekends and my vacation days to explore my beautiful home state and the world. I'm naturally more of an introvert, but I love meeting new people and going on adventures. I like to be constantly on-the-go so I do tire some people out. I also have a tendency to ask 101 questions because I'm a curious person. I want to know what makes your city, country, culture, and you tick.

I'm also a travel blogger. You can check out my adventures at: www.diariesofawanderinglobster.com

I'm currently traveling through South East Asia.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I'm new to Couchsurfing but I have met some very interesting and fun people through it and I'm always looking for insider information about my travel destinations. Perhaps you can help me?

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I wouldn't say I've done anything "amazing," but I have certainly done some extraordinary things, like Ironman Lake Placid (2013) and winter camping in the White Mountains of New Hampshire (I also got severe frostbite that weekend; it's a great story).

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I'm a personal trainer and endurance sport coach so if you're looking for a great discussion on fitness, I'd love to tell you my strong opinions about it! And maybe tweak your form. :-)

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I'm a strong believer in host(ess) gifts. You'll get a little piece of Maine with me!
