I am traveling solo in Europe for about two months this summer. I am from Colorado and love spending time in the outdoors, especially the mountains. I love to travel and value learning about other cultures and ways of life. The most important part of travel for me is the connections I make with people along the way. I've never been to Europe and am very excited to experience the history, scenery and meet interesting people along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make genuine connections as I explore this beautiful world of ours.
