About Me

I graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in Nutritional Biology and am now in medical school at the University of Vermont. I love to travel, experience new things, and meet people. While I'm at home I ski, hike, bike, and explore wherever I can. I'm really easy going and up for about anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I found out about couchsurfing during a study abroad trip in Germany when one of the friends I made in my program found locals for us to hang out with. It was really cool to get that perspective, so I made my own profile after that. I have surfed in a few different places and have hosted once before, too. I now have more free time and space in my house to host others and show them my city from the local perspective.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a month in Germany during the summer of 2012 and met tons of people from over 20 different countries. I am still friends with some of them today and we meet up and travel the world together. So far I have been to England, Poland, and Vietnam because of the connections I made. Is is so amazing to have friends from different places and be able to discover new things with them.

Teach, Learn, Share

The best thing to do while traveling is to go off the beaten path and see things that aren't necessarily huge tourist spots. They are less crowded and often a more unique experience. Also, eat local food.
