ABOUT ME

I just graduated from university and I am about to start working with my church workin with college students! I can't wait - I think it's going to be an amazing experience!
...But before I begin, I'm going to travel across western europe with two of my friends. We're going to visit 10 different countries in 7 weeks. We're excited to spend this time traveling and seeing different parts of the world.
I love trying new things, so I'm up for anything on this trip.

PHILOSOPHY

my personal philosophy, huh?
that's a big question...
What do I live for?
that's an even bigger question.

I guess I would sum it up in this way: to live life in a way that leaves others encouraged, motivated, and feeling the same joy and excitement that i have. if i can point others towards that in any way, then I guess I am living with the best purpose that I know. I want to live a life of adventure and discover the mystery that lies deep within this world. I believe that we are longing to be set free and I would hope that my life reflects that in some way.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

right now I'm traveling and I'm excited to use this project to get to see other places from a local's perspective

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

After an incredible trip around Europe with two of my closest friends, we would all agree that one of our favorite parts of the trip was couch surfing. We weren't sure what to expect before we started, but lets just say couch surfing could be considered some form of addiction...
We met so many incredible people and had a really great time sharing life with them as we came through! There is nothing like couch surfing and I would say that it's the only way to travel.
Every person we stayed with was overly gracious and willing to share not only their home with us, but so much more. Our favorite nights were eating dinner or staying up all hours just talking or sharing music or telling random stories.
