CURRENT MISSION

I'm finishing up a year living abroad in France, where I've been teaching English to high school students. The insight has been amazing because I've met so many interesting people along the way. I now thrive to meet new and interesting people.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty easy going person, and I'm content to both spend my time strolling and people watching as well as going out at night and having a good time. I enjoy meeting new people who enjoy good conversation and want to share their life/culture with me.

PHILOSOPHY

Never be too quick to judge.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've just started using CS so I haven't done much yet, but I hope to meet interesting people from around the world who have differing perspectives.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The closest experience I've had to couch surfing was when I did a homestay several years ago with a family in France. It was amazing to see a city through their seasoned eyes and to meet their loved ones.

Interests

I'm an avid writer. I'm always jotting ideas down, and if I weren't so scatter brained, I might actually have something substantial to show for it. I particularly enjoy screenwriting and magazine journalism.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to read, but I tend to be pulled in by magazines more than books, as I hope to be a magazine journalist one day. I love music (Ted Leo, Arcade Fire, Spoon, Chemical Brothers, The National...) and I really admire film. My favorite movie of all time is Rushmore. If you like this movie, we will probably get along.
