CURRENT MISSION

To get out of my post-graduation slump and have some fun!

ABOUT ME

I'm a recent college grad trying to find my way and purpose in life. I may go to grad school or try to settle into a job. I would love to travel as much as possible, make new friends, and have lots of new experiences. I love creative writing and aspire to publish a memoir someday.

PHILOSOPHY

As someone who has struggled with a lifelong anxiety disorder, I guess my philosophy is to do my best to overcome those challenges, meet new people, and have as much fun as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to meet with people visiting the area and show them around. I also hope to travel and stay with members on the site in order to make new friends and get a real feel for the places that I visit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet, hoping to have my first soon!
