I moved to Austin about four years ago from Florida, (and after living in Ireland for a few years before that.) I love this city, but still get the travel bug! If I'm free, I'd love to show you some of my favorite spots and bands around town, or if I’m not, I may be able to put you up on my couch anyway.

I'm fairly busy during the school year and traveling a lot during the summer, but go ahead and send a request and we'll see if we can work something out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have met so many wonderful people through CS, whether it has been on my travels or by hosting new friends!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Managed to keep myself alive so far.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you’re interested I can talk your ear off about the sociohistorical evolution of systemic oppression in our fine nation. Basically intersectional theoretical feminist theory.

Food and friendship, a couch that may or may not be covered in cat hair.
