I'm a 29 year old female from the heart of the USA. I grew up on a farm in West Central Minnesota, but have been living in Minneapolis, MN for the last 10 years. I love to explore new places and photograph them. I love food and wine and exploring a region through its cuisine. I love to stay active by playing volleyball and hockey and anything that lets me stay fit while being social. I'm pretty easy going and tend to find humor in everything I do!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm traveling to Australia in September and plan to stay for 6 - 8 months. I would love to see the country from another point of view, and hope to make connections through this site.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm currently loving the VHS album by the X Ambassadors, but I have to retain my love for everything by Billy Joel.

I'm trying to finish the Longmire series of novels, but i keep getting distracted by historical fiction books.

I love any movie with Bill Murray. He's just too good. Moulin Rouge is too fantastic to not mention, and Love Actually is the movie that plays in the background in the weeks leading up to Christmas.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got to bottle feed a baby brown bear. So cute, but already deadly.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a great upbeat attitude and love to have fun no matter the location.
