Third year Strategic Communications student that also studies Spanish, Graphic Design, and Youth Studies. I like creative people, music, and using chopsticks. I dabble in many things, and can be indecisive when it comes to choosing one of those things to focus on.

I love Minnesota, and can tell/show you all of the stuff that make it so great. Maybe you can help me accomplish one of the many goals I have for the year.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend of mine wouldn't stop talking about all of the wonderful people he met and the great experiences he had while couchsurfing across the country. He spoke so highly of the community that I decided to try it myself while I was traveling throughout Europe during my semester abroad. I also met many amazing people and often found it to be stress-free and comforting knowing that after busy days out, I could retreat to a real home with a friendly face that knows the city instead of a hostel with a bunch of strange faces that are only interested in picking the next sight to capture for Instagram (don't get me wrong, I am guilty of doing this once or twice).

I also love making connections with people I just met. The more friends, the more fun! :)
