Overview
About Me
Hello! I recently finished up traveling for about a year with a faith-based organization, volunteering here and there, trying to soak in the world and all its' goodness, learning about all the ways people can live and think differently than myself. I now live in Denver where I love to get outside just about as much as I possibly can. I like living simply, learning, and creating things whenever I can.
"I believe in kindness. Also in mischief. Also in singing, especially when singing is not necessarily prescribed."
-Mary Oliver
**I wish I could accept guests because I love hospitality and have been shown so much in my own travels, but I currently live in a community house where I can't bring in strangers that I can't personally vouch for. However, if we have met and you need a place to stay in Denver, then definitely hit me up!**
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because the world wouldn't be able to exist without the kindness of strangers. I want to both meet such people and try to be one of them.
Interests
I'm your pretty average millennial girl. I drink coffee most mornings, unsuccessfully train for running marathons, eat kale most days, and want to hopefully make a difference someday. Also love connecting with people and traveling, of course!
Living in beautiful Colorado allows me to get into the mountains almost as much as I want, which is a dream come true.

What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share with you how to make an okay cup of coffee or how to make a really pretty friendship bracelet or I can sing you a song. And I would love to share a bottle of wine and a good meal.
