CURRENT MISSION

To thrive in Madrid while studying for my Master in Tourism Marketing!

ABOUT ME

Español e inglés 🏼

I'm free, fun-loving, and independent (but aren't all couchsurfers?). You may be interested to know I grew up in rural North Dakota (which happens to be the geographical center of North America) and graduated High School with a whopping 9 people!

WHICH fuels my excitement and passion for traveling, exploring, and meeting new, eccentric, exotic, magnificent people!🧡

I’m new to Madrid ( 5 months ) and I want to explore EVERYTHING !! I’m studying tourism here and would love to give advice or join on an almost any adventure.

LIFE PHILOSOPHY

Leave everything in better condition than you found it. Smile, its contagious!
Don't take life too seriously, you'll never get out alive.
Just because I wander, doesn't mean I'm lost.
Pay it forward.
Begin every day as if it were on purpose .
Never lose your childish wonder.
What comes around goes around.
