About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel to various countries, taking the time to appreciate and understand the culture and to open my eyes to the world's possibilities

ABOUT ME

More than anything else, one of my favorite things to do is talk to people over a cup of coffee. I enjoy hearing different perspectives and using that knowledge to better myself. I'm happiest when out in nature, when exploring some historically rich city, or when immersed in a good book. After finishing my undergraduate, I plan to go on to nursing school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I'm studying in Florence but I plan to spend a couple weeks after my program traveling. I'm staying abroad for the summer to work at a hostel in Germany before heading back to the States in August. I can only search for couches and/or grab coffee now, but I would love to share my couch when I get home.

I haven't had an CouchSurfing experiences yet, but I'm looking forward to my first in a few weeks!
