Hi - I'm Rachel! I'm visiting NZ from the US. I lived in Chicago for many years, but I most recently left a seasonal job right outside of Glacier National Park in Montana. I'm a writer and artist & love traveling and getting to know new places from the lens of a local. I'd consider myself down to earth and good company. Things I love about traveling: Finding the flow and going with it, local art, coffee shops, good bars, local hikes, hidden gems, history, meeting new friends, FOOD FOOD FOOD !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's all about the people you meet and the connections you make.
