Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love adventure and exploring and CS seems to be the perfect place to do so. I love meeting new people and seeing knew places in an 'off the beaten path' style.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met up with a couple of CS people in Brussels and have given them fun, little 'act-like-a-local' tours about the city and cannot wait to do more!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am an avid reader, music listening, and movie watcher. I like most genres of each and am open to reading, listening, and watching new things. I especially like black and white films, classic literature, and chilled out tunes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked at a children's summer camp for many years in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina to escape the Florida heat.

Currently, I am in Brussels complete my master's degree, but was an au pair here before.

Tend to book trips on a whim...usually Paris or Amsterdam.
