After graduating high school in the spring of 2015, I decided to take a year off before attending college in order to greater experience the world via travel and working on farms around the nation. I am currently employed at a cupcake shop in the city of St. Louis, though I have had previous experience working summer in construction for forty hours a week, along with having directed several Shakespearean plays. I enjoy writing poetry and fiction, reading works of any kind, making and thinking about all of the arts, and philosophy. I am a happy and well-spirited person that loves to smile and make others smile as well, and I have a great interest in learning about the lives and ways of living of other people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in learning about the lives of locals in the cities I visit, along with cheaper traveling and a greater ability to learn to appreciate cities from the local view point.

Interests

Poetry, Contemporary Art, Writing, Reading, Bicycling, Architecture, essentially anything a person can think of. I'm interested in humanity, and the human experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite book would have to be Jailbird, by Kurt Vonnegut. My favorite band is The Tallest Man on Earth, though I love milo as well. Movie wise, The Big Lebowski owns my heart.

I can share a great attitude, a winning smile, and a quick learning skill set to help out in any way the host needs.
