Hi! I'm a post-bac pre-grad lady running around between countries in my free time in search of good backpacking, hiking, and the occasional swimming hole. I love reading (esp. dystopian American dream books and sci-fi), being outside, my cat, all the dogs, and all the food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm traveling in any free time I get from work and I love getting to meet new people and hear about their towns from a local's perspective. They know the best stuff and it's way cheaper than guidebooks. I love the combination that couch surfing offers by giving you a home base and cool people to talk to and eat with.
