About Me

Hi I'm currently living in France and playing in my second season of professional volleyball. I'm thankful for the opportunity volleyball has given me to travel and see places I never dreamed of visiting. However, I have many more interests outside of volleyball..including cooking, reading, hiking, having a good conversation over a great cup of coffee..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've heard from friends about their great experiences on couch surfing. I'm excited to start traveling on my own and would love to meet people that are local and can give a new perspective on their cities. And in general, I'm open to meeting new people and learning about their stories!

Interests

History..for me, it's very interesting to know the past and how it influences people on where they are today and where they want to go in the future. I also studied public health and exercise science, so I love discussing public policy and ways to improve a populations health. Also, I enjoy spending time outdoors...hiking, swimming, climbing, repelling down waterfalls, etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently listening to bluegrass, country, and top 40. But appreciate classical music as I played the French horn during school.
