Hello! I grew up in the Dallas area and then went to university in Denton for physics and math, but my real interest is in acoustics and how music works in the mind. I want to go back to school for my masters in acoustical physics. I have been singing and playing music my whole life. Last year I took about 5 months to backpack West Europe with my boyfriend Shawn Gibson (also on CS) who I am living with now. We did a lot of Couchsurfing, work away, and camping. There is way to much to tell in just a couple of paragraphs so come visit and we can share stories!
UGH it is not letting me change my email address on here so I guess if you read this my email address is racheldemings@gmail.com

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I got to learn what couchsurfing really is while traveling. It's more than just meeting people and having a place to stay, it can really be a life changer. I made so many friends through couchsurfing and now I want to open my home to continue learning and sharing experiences/cultures with people from all over the world. Was that super cheesy? hehe :)
