I'm a traveler at heart, even if I've only made it a reality within the last two years. Now that I've started to venture out into the world I can't stop. Each year I make it a point to get out of the USA and take a trip somewhere new. I love laughing, I love living, and I love sharing all of these things with other people who feel the same.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see the world, even if I have to do it alone. I love making new friends and seeing new cultures. I want to build a foundation of friends who make traveling a big role in their lives so I can share these experiences along the way. I want to have friends all over the world!

Interests

I love doing hair for my career, for now. Since traveling alone to Europe for an 8 week period I realized how little I actually knew about life, our earth, and its history. I enjoy being in the mountains, camping, hiking or climbing. Being outdoors in general, it helps me to feel more grounded. I enjoy a nice beer or glass of wine on a patio on a sunny day.
Travel! I just want to travel. I need to figure out how to get Anthony Bourdain's job ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
