CURRENT MISSION

eating up the miles.

ABOUT ME

I like tall tales, tasty meals, bright colors, pets, wildlife, and of course, travel.

I lived in Kansas my whole life, until I traveled to Ecuador and came down with a serious case of the travel bug. I moved to Seoul, and taught English there for two years and traveled in Asia. Now, I'm looking forward to visiting friends and family in Europe, volunteering in South America, and starting my freelance illustration business.

PHILOSOPHY

delight in small pleasures and big challenges. don't waste time on complaints. lend a helping hand. pay attention.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting CS friends in Seoul for tasty Korean meals; looking forward to actually couchsurfing in Europe, and one day hosting when I don't live in a shoebox.
