Fun fact: I have moved 16 times all over the US. (No military connection)

I spent my high school years in Minnesota but now live and study in Wisconsin. My last two semesters were spent in Vietnam and Prague, Czech Republic and the next stop is South Africa this summer.

Im currently working at a cheese shop expanding my cheesy knowledge and eating my weight in cheddar on the daily. I have a beautifully fluffy white cat and am studying Anthropology at the University of Wisconsin.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Like most everyone else I love meeting new people and hearing their stories.

When being hosted its awesome to see a city from the eyes of a local as well as hear about their love and woes with the culture and atmosphere of where they are living.

When hosting its fun to show people the best time in a place you love. Meeting new people and hearing their stories is the fun of it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked at an Women's Empowerment NGO in Cambodia in the summer of 2015.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook, speak Spanish, craft, thrift, and talk about anthropology. I'm a big fan of thought provoking conversations especially with people from a cultural background different than my own.
