CURRENT MISSION

Reconnect with my love of community-oriented travel.

ABOUT ME

Midwest native, current Utahn, finding unexpected answers around every fold of the map.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've used CS in Peru, Mexico and the United States and every experience has been wonderful. I've never met more generous, kindhearted hosts.

I have hosted once while living in NYC, where I hosted two lovely fellows from Australia for about 5 days. I'm currently living in Park City, UT.

Interests

Outdoor rompings, hiking, waterfall bathing, biking...I'm a bookworm and a daydreamer. Live music, festivals of all sorts, yoga, and making food for my friends. I get the most pleasure simply from being with the people I love...connection is everything. I love making art; I studied fashion/textiles in school, I'm a painter, illustrator, and currently learning how to weave. Let me paint a mural for you!

I'm currently working on practicing mindfulness; accepting the good and bad in life and taking everything as it comes with as much love and acceptance as I can muster.I would like to surround myself with likeminded people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music ~ A bit of everything. Folk, classic country, sad girl indie, post punk - if it’s good, I like it. Current obsession: Petey USA

Film and television ~ I lean towards dark comedies, folk horror, heartfelt indie films, quirky comedies, and sci-fi. On repeat : Fleabag

Books ~ true crime, history, historical fiction, surrealism, sci fi, sex and relationship education. Currently reading: Feel it All by Casey Tanner

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Salkantay Trek in Peru was a life changing experience. I've also traveled extensively around the United States as a cross country tour guide.

A laugh and a six pack. Or a wedge of fine cheese and a hug, if that's your thing.
