Hi! My Name is Quinn. I'm a college student in Miami, FL; but was born and raised in a small town in Arizona. I love to meet new people, learn about new cultures and ideas, hang out, hike, swim, scuba dive, work out, go to the beach, etc. When I was sixteen years old I got a national scholarship to move to Germany by myself, and it was the best experience I have ever had. It was there that I learned to speak German, truly appreciate other cultures, and got to travel to over 15 countries!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking to walk the heritage trail from Key Largo to Key West (103 miles) over my school spring break next week. I am just looking for a place to crash at night and maybe a few suggestions of cool places to stop along the way! If you would be willing to help a backpacker out, that would be great!

Interests

I love the outdoors- in any way, shape or form. I also love to try new things, meet new people, and talk about things from different perspectives. Oh yeah I also enjoy the occasional beer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hiked Mount Fuji in Japan when I was fifteen. It was the middle of June but still snowed the whole way up.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am really good with random trivia because I have loved to watch Jeopardy since I was a kid. I also know a lot of random stuff about world cultures because that is what interests me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my stories, having gotten to experience a lot in my young age, as well as a six pack of beer/ a bottle of wine :)
