Hi! My name is Rebecca Beal and I am a high school math teacher in a Northwest suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota.

I live with my partner and our beautiful baby born july 2018. If you dont mind a babies beautiful cries, we have two extraordinarily comfy couches and a twin bed available to sleep on.

**disclaimer: we have two awesome dogs and two super sweet cats**

We are available for a place to stay, drinks, dinner, or whatever works between our schedules! Feel free to shoot a message if you're in the Minneapolis area. We are a quick 10 minute drive from Northeast and 15 minutes from Downtown!

A little about me. I play rugby for a team in Minneapolis and i am an avid hiker and rock climber! I will do pretty much anything active and always love a good adventure. Some of my highlights were canyoning in Croatia and hiking in the Alps.

I'm a big beer enthusiast and I think the best way to celebrate a good day is with a delicious beer. Breweries and brewpubs are some of my favorite places to go.

There's way more I could tell you but the key components are that I am a nerdy, adventurous, fun-loving, math teacher just looking for some new friends to enjoy a day/evening with!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't get the point of traveling and staying in hotels. It is inauthentic and you don't get a true feeling for what a city is like. I also love meeting new people! I am a true believer that we never know who is going to impact our lives in a meaningful way and meeting new people is the best way to allow this to happen.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went hiking in the alps in Austria. I had no intention of going but I could see them out of my hostel window and decided, "what the hell! I'm going to go up there!" I have been in love with hiking ever since.
