CURRENT MISSION

To travel to new countries and explore new cultures.

ABOUT ME

I have lived in Georgia most of my life but have managed to travel a decent bit and hope to continue! I am a new high school teacher and excited that I get to have breaks in the year to travel again. I'm pretty easygoing and laid-back and I really like to meet people. I might seem shy at first but once we get talking I open up very quickly, and have a pretty outgoing personality.

I haven't used couchsurfing in a long time, primarily because I haven't solo travelled or travelled in a small group in many years. If you notice my lack of engagement on the website, that's why. I am excited to get connected to couchsurfing again because it has made my travel experiences so much better in the past!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I definitely promote couchsurfing amongst friends and spread the word to people who have never heard of it. It's a great resource and good way to meet new people in any area, whether in your own country or abroad.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only hosted a few times, and I have mainly surfed. All of the surfing experiences have been awesome, and I look forward to hosting in the future when I have the space to do so.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy bluegrass, folk, and acoustic music, blues and jazz. My Morning Jacket, Fleet Foxes, Avett Brothers, Indigo Girls and a lot of local bands from my region... but I like a little of everything.
I am always looking for new music! Constantly want to update my music so suggestions are welcome :)

One of my favorite books is The Alchemist, but I enjoy reading all different types of books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

During my graduate program, I lived in Senegal for a month. It was an educational, fascinating, and challenging adventure and experience in so many ways.

What I Can Share with Hosts

When I travel to other countries, I prefer meeting local people and exploring the authentic culture as much as possible. So, that being said, I offer to hosts a willing and eager participant to check out your local spots and get to know you/ practice language if possible! I want to learn as much as possible and hope to develop a friendship simultaneously.
