Hello all! My name's Nicole, and I am a four-year resident of Austin, TX, originally hailing from Charlotte, NC.

I work in art education, and I'm so fulfilled to make a living from discussing and investing in the humanities. I'm also a painter who leans toward making neo-abstract expressionist works.

I greatly value lifelong learning, exploration, solidarity, optimism, and hard work. I strive to bring positive energy with me wherever I go, and the golden rule is essential to how I live my life.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

What I love most about Couchsurfing is how it promotes connections between strangers. There is such a growing distrust of strangers in our culture, and I love that Couchsurfing allows people to invest trust and form relationships in spite of how closed off our society can often feel.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I really, really love to cook, and I am beyond happy to contribute meals! I also love a good discussion around social justice issues, especially with the intent of dissecting ways to build a more connected community.
