About Me

After graduating college, I spent 2 years hopping from one adventure to the next. Now I’ve been working as a nurse for the past few years and try to fit excursions in when possible. I’ve come to really enjoy rollerskating, backpacking, canoeing, and cross country skiing in the past few years, in general, I always love to get outside to be in nature. I am more spontaneous than I am a planner and am consistently drawn to new experiences. I love to meet new people and hear their stories, always preferring an authentic conversation over a fluffy one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Gain and give a local's perspective on the community. There are so many beautiful, exciting, and interesting things to experience while traveling, but my favorite travel memories always include the people I’ve met. Many of my friends have used couch surfing and have so many positive experiences to share.
