Hello!

I am currently living in Montana where I work in the sustainability field! I wrote a zine about composting with two of my good friends (ask me about it!) and I'm part of a sustainable living community. I also freelance as a writer for a comics blog and enjoy talking to people about different fandoms (Marvel vs. DC, Avatar the Last Airbender, One Piece, Harry Potter). Smiling and laughing are my favorite, as are comics, chocolate, and cats :)

All my hosts have been fantastic and I've met some truly wonderful people! :) I can not think of a better way to travel and I truly believe the best way to explore a new place is to have a local take you around.

音乐、电影和书籍

This is from growing up in the 90s and 00s, but Backstreet Boys are my all-time favorite group! Also, any music that is catchy and easy to sing along to :)

Zoolander, Up, and Elf are my absolute favorite movies and I can watch them over and over again. I love anything by Studio Ghibli too!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Studying abroad has definitely been one of the best things I've done in my entire life! I spent spring semester 2009 in Sweden and fall semester 2009 in Bulgaria!

I love love LOVE national parks and my favorite is Yellowstone National Park! Eventually I'd love to make it to all the national parks in the USA!

A lot of my traveling experiences have stemmed from reading about a place and thinking, "I want to do this! I'll plan a trip now!" Perfect examples were going to Albuquerque, New Mexico to see the Balloon Fiesta and Puerto Rico to kayak in the bioluminescent bay :D

I've also been to 38/50 US states! My goal is to make it to all 50!

教，学，和分享

I love learning about new things and meeting new people, and I believe that Couchsurfing is one of the best ways to connect with a place and locals :)
