About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to see the world, meet people, and enjoy life. There will never be enough time in the day to do it all, but I'll still try to take it all in.

ABOUT ME

I am a college student at the University of Minnesota. I traveled all around the US with my family before I turned 16, but I first went to Europe as a senior in high school, and was bitten by the travel bug. Since then I've made another return trip to Europe and one trip to Latin America. There will never be enough time to see all of the wonderful places and to meet the friendly people from all around the world; however, I will give it my best shot to do as much as I can, and to meet as many people as possible. No matter what, I'll be content with however far I get. It is impossible to enjoy the present if you are too worried about the future!

PHILOSOPHY

I am extremely outgoing and will talk to anyone about anything. I love to see new places, experience new things, and meet new people along the journey of life. I don't mind a good party, or a nice chat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to travel and see the world; when I'm at home, I'm happy to help people enjoy my city/home as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a few times while I was in Europe and also met some great couch surfing friends while I was in Europe. I've also started hosting now that I'm back at home and it's been a blast so far.Create your own visited map of The United States

Interests

I love to travel (obviously), but I also enjoy sports, and science. After all, I am studying to become an engineer. I love just about any sport you could imagine (soccer, football, baseball, basketball, tennis,...the list goes on and on). I wish I was better at music, and I'm happy to try anything once.

Music, Movies, and Books

John Grisham novels are some of my favorites. I'm up for pretty much any kind of music and any kind of movie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The prettiest place I have ever been on the face of the earth is a nice flat overlooking the beautiful "Lago di Como" in Italy. Waking up with the sun rising over the mountains and glistening on the water below was incredible!

Teach, Learn, Share

Right now, I'm learning a lot about engineering from school, but I love sports. I grew up playing all sorts of sport and I'm happy to sit down and watch a game, or teach foreigners how to play a new sport. I'm really interested in what other people have learned about cultures from around the world through their own travels. Also, I enjoy cooking/eating food of all different sorts from around the world.
