CURRENT MISSION

Soak in some spontaneity, see all new things, meet great people, share my wonderful city!

ABOUT ME

I'm 25, I believe in art, music, friends, family, my city, sunshine, coffee, Sunday mornings, spontaneity, dancing, dive bars & good beer, laughing til my sides hurt, misadventures, reggae nights, reading, Twister, the beach, cruiser bikes, wandering new cities and traveling, lakes, libraries, experiences that put me out of my comfort zone, experiences that put me into the lives of others & chatting with strangers (you never know what you can learn, or from whom, so don't count anyone out!)

I am a portrait photographer (www.city-lights-studio.com) and will def have my camera. I also run a local art magazine (www.nomadbuffalo.com) - I'm easy going, fun-loving & adventure seeking :)

PHILOSOPHY

Make the absolute best out of every possible situation; celebrate all accomplishments, no matter how small & be a constant work-in-progress :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Recently had my first couch-surfing experience & loved it!

I loved the warm welcomings we received from other surfers even if they couldn't host us- seems like a great community to be a part of!

When I surf, I'd love a place to sleep & a tour of your city; can't beat an insiders view.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just one so far, in Savannah on Valentine's Day & I had a blast!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While floating on my back one day, I felt something bristly & stood up to see I was surrounded by a herd of HUGE manatees. Snorkeled with sting rays (that was terrifying). Jumped in the waterfall in the Puerto Rican rainforest. But, a midnight kayak & swim in the best bio-luminescent bay in the world HAS to be on the top of my list!

(I'm a water baby if you haven't figured it out yet)
