About Me

ABOUT ME

Sarcasm rules. Alone time is necessary. Friends are fab. At the moment I'm just going with the flow of the adventurous mess that is my life– and digging it.

Anywhooo I love hanging out with friends and meeting people from around the world. People are the best way to connect to a place, so I'm all about making those connections. Join meh?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently living in Armentières with an older french woman (she is the bomb) and working in a high school dorm right next door. I'm often in Lille which is about a 15min train ride away. Could probably house you in an emergency?? Otherwise I'd love to simply meet up, hang out, and exchange stories if you're around and down! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed in Amsterdam with two separate hosts and a couple other times around France since I first arrived. All good things and all good people \m/\m/

Interests

Writing, reading, soccer, surfing, camping, theatre, movies, traveling, ukulele, languages, learning about the world. Life is pretty interesting if you are willing to open up to it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crawled through some lava tubes in New Mexico and experienced absolute darkness. Watch out for the chupacabras ~~~~

I've got a couple languages up my sleeve, decent conversation waiting to happen, and I can make a mean Tortilla de patata.
