Hello all! I've had really good experiences using Couchsurfing in the past to meet people and explore places that I wouldn't normally get to see. I'm always traveling as much as I can because I want to see everything and do everything.

I'm originally from Kansas in the United States but I've been living abroad for the last 4 years. I was in Guangzhou, China for 2 years then one year in Puebla, Mexico. I'm currently living in Santiago de Compostela. I can speak intermediate Spanish.

I read a lot and i like spending time on my own as well as meeting people. I like to have a few drinks with friends but I'm not looking to party.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people and learn new things

Interests

I love traveling and learning about other people's culture. I love trying new food and going on hikes. I like to visit cities but I'm a country girl at heart. I love art and museums. I like learning about the history of a place. I also occasionally love to spend a whole day watching Netflix and eating pizza.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a bit of everything. lil bob Dylan. Lil Britney Spears. Lil bit of random music after spending too much time on YouTube

I watch a lot of Netflix

Ha long Bay, Great Wall of China, Grand Canyon, lots of pyramids in Mexico, swimming with dolphins, sky diving, swing wild sea turtles, hiking a few volcanoes, lots of temples in Asia

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share stories about my travels. I'm also happy to answer any questions you might have about Kansas or my American culture. I did drink out of red solo cups at house parties in college and I was not in a sorority.
