About Me

I'm an ENFP skateboarder, musician, artist, and lover of life. I'm recently graduated with my BFA in Photography from Kennesaw State University, right outside of Atlanta, GA.

I'll keep it short for now, if you'd like to know more, let's be friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My girlfriend hosted her first couchsurfer a while back, and the experience was amazing. We made a new friend, and it made me extremely interested in trying it myself. Granted, I've couchsurfed (not formally through the site, but literally just staying on friends' couches) many times before, but the approach is a bit different with this community.

I find that it's a great way to meet like-minded, genuine and interesting people. It also helps you really experience new places, and avoid the tourist approach to traveling. I'm really excited to travel, see some new places and make some new friends!
